I was wrong on the name, it was taskmaster not Towmaster. It was what I ended up with, primarily because of the most current DOT manufacture date. Now I have three different brands on the trailer. Two of the Original Triangles, one Akuret that was replaced with the Dexter axle under warranty and now the taskmaster. Go figure, the Triangle tire that I replaced was manufactured in May 2010.

You should find out which ones have the nylon cap-and if they don't replace them immediately.

I have to get one tire tomorrow, not ready to buy a complete set at this time. Local choices are limited to Towmaster, goodyear marathon or Akuret. And yes, I know they are all China bombs but I gotta pick one. Choices, chooses choices...........cC
Towmaster and Goodyear both have the nylon cap. That makes them a better tire. I am not sure about the other brand.
The term "China bomb" are used by those who have had bad experience with the tires 20 years ago. The new tires with the nylon cap are better constructed.

Get the highest rated ply tire that will fit your rim and the space in your wheel well. I use the "G" rated Good Year tire. I would get the tire (size,ply, brand) you would choose if you were going to replace all the tires. This will avoid ending up with tires that don't match up.

You can upgrade the other 3 as they fail or you get some extra cash .
If your present tire has an 1820 # load rating on the sidewall try to get one that is 2271 # as it's replacement .
Any increase is an improvement .
It is not about brand .
It is about load rating .

While the trailer tire issue is real, most RVers arenโt even aware of the tire controversy and without the internet it would be almost a non-issueโฆ
