- bobndotExplorer IIGoodyear Endurance or Maxxis M8008 both 'st' tires for trailers.
- rbpruExplorer IIIt is hard to go wrong with a name brand tire like those mentioned.
What was on the TT and how well did they do?
I upgraded to the next higher rated tire because it gives me some leeway on tire pressure. - kaliaExplorerTrailer King tires are the ones we have, are 3 years old with about 20,000 miles. Blew 1 on I75...it just exploded!
- kaliaExplorerAny ideas of what ply? We are going to get all 4 new. Thank you for your responses.
- JIMNLINExplorer IIIWe have no idea what ply or what load range or what size tire or what your trailers axle rating are. This can make a big difference in a good recommendation
Were in the dark here....give us some help with the particulars. - kaliaExplorerThe info we need is in our unit at the repair shop. They're now closed for the holiday so we'll have to wait 'til Friday. Shop is not dealing with the tires. Thank you for the head's up. Didn't know there was more to it than ply, size, and "made for trailing" (not for a car).
- LynnmorExplorerThe “ply” rating is something out of the distant past, now you go by load range such as C, D or E.
- BarneySExplorer IIII suspect the 20' trailer would do fine with load range "C" tires. The only other spec I would want to know is the size - most likely a 215 or 225R 14 or 15.
I would purchase Maxxis, or Goodyear Endurance tires.
