I dread buying trailer tires but I feel I have pushed my luck as far as I can.
My tires have plenty of thread but they are 8 years old.
Does anyone still make a decent trailer tire ??????
I never go more than 100 miles from my house.
This is for a boat trailer so no overloading problems.
70 mph will be max speed.
Has load range C tires from factory but for a few dollars more I will take D tires.
So I'm in the market for ST175/80R/13 tires. 6 or 8 ply with a speed rating of L or M.
I'm kind of leaning toward Carlisle brand right now even though they are 50% more than some no name tires.
Finding a place that sells tires with a manufacture date in the last 6 months is my biggest priority.
Most of these cheap online places are selling tries that are 2 or 3 years old.
