Robert G. Smits Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I know this has been discussed before and I have read the latest thread but trailer tire quality appears to be in constant flux so what would you buy today? I have a 28 ft gooseneck that I use for long hauling with heavy cars. This trailer is a 20 ft used for local trips. Thanks in advance.

Trulyvintage Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Bob Goodyear ST Endurance 10 ply from Discount Tire/America’s Tire with free replacement road hazard for life of tread. No pro rating - free replacement if road hazard renders tire non repairable. Free rotation & balance. That is what I run on my aluminum custom enclosed car hauler. Loaded late this afternoon in Indiana. Headed to Florida. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Peck Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 What would be the repercussions of having the same tires on a trailer as tow vehicle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re an entirely different design of tire. It would be dangerous to use either for the wrong purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
