Carlisle Radial Trail RH Trailer Tire???
My trailer (Nash 25-S, 1998) needs new tires. The largest tire stores in my area are the Discount Tire Stores & they HIGHLY recommend the NEW Carlisle trailer tires. I'm looking at the 225-75-15-E's...

I'm looking at tire replacement, too and have visited Discount Tires for a quote. My impression is that they make more money from Carlisle than Maxxis. They can order the Maxxis for you.
My understanding is that Carlisle has reformulated the materials and changed the construction (including belts). How much is market-speak and how much is to the benefit of the tire is unknown to me. I'm always leery of promoted new benefits to any product. How much better is "New Tide" over the original product, so to speak.
As Lowsuv posted, an increase in load range is going to trump brand or market-speak. The anecdotal information can be skewed, also. I have no idea about how someone else's tire is used--speed, inflation, alignment, suspension, weights, etc. are different for everyone.
