Yes, in the sun Charlie, and I'm aware of the sun damage.

I would buy a set of tire covers even if it wasn't parked in the sun.

Charlier,
Your inspection technician isn't entirely wrong, but he did over-simplify in my opinion.
The fact is that, having done ALL the right things with regard to loading, pressure, maintenance, etc., my less-than-one-year-old trailer with 6000lb axles and new Load-Range E tires blew the inside sidewalls on three of the first five tires (I bought new Michelins before the other 2 had a chance to blow). This was on our first two trips, and I check air pressure at 80psi EVERY MORNING. One of them blew overnight, splitting a sidewall in the driveway; another Popped Very Loudly, also splitting the sidewall in 10mph traffic during a hurricane evacuation.
What these DEFECTIVE tires had in common was that they were ALL MADE IN CHINA -- IRONMAN brand, which I was told is a Carlisle sub-brand -- they are 235/85-R16 LR"E".
"Buy-American" isn't such bad advice -- it might even save your life as well as your job.
If they don't have ST in the beginning of the size they are not trailer tires.

Good news for those looking for an American made trailer tire ....
Starting earlier this year Goodyear introduced an American Made ST Trailer Tire.

I buy my at Discount Tire/America's Tire Store because they offer free replacement certificates that are not based on pro-rated tire treadI have been running them all year long on my triple axle 34 foot enclosed car hauler trailer

I know this is a long shot but I am looking for factory photo's or original car photo of the trunk area on a 64 Plymouth Sport Fury for placement & installation of the original trunk filler boards. Also colors of spatter paint that were used at that time. Any help whatsoever would be appreciated. Dave
