Tire Guru Question

[spud1957]

Just about to order new tires for the trailer. The spec sheet says 6.5" rims, I have 6". The tire size is the same as the tires I am replacing ST235/80-16s.

Any issues?

I hope they are Sailun S637's. Chris

Nope. Don't have 110 PSI rims.

Thanks guys. That's enough confirmation for me.

Same as mine, too. I have GoodYear G614s and supposedly they recommend a minimum 6.5" rim. I have 6" rims and they're doing just fine.

You might see a little more wear in the center of the tread with the narrower rims. That probably doesn't matter as trailer tires almost always age out before they wear out.

No problem, same as mine.
