Trailer Tires

Not sure what state you haul in but here in the Communist state of Connecticut. If DMV pulls you over they actually check the weight of the tires side wall status. They will shut you down if your tire weights don’t add up to the gross vehicle weight. And if you have one tire lower than the rest, they use that weight x the number of tires.

I own 4 trailers I count on every day for work. Small to 14,400gvw. I buy the next letter up tire- if “D” then I go “E” just to avoid issues with heat, weight and longevity.
Name brand is always better than China made tires and always check tires pressures before leaving and thru out the drive. Low tire pressures heat a tire up quickly. Also- when I can I go the largest tire available on a trailer when I buy the trailers new. Larger OD means they turn slower creating less heat.

okay- grandpa Sylvia needs a nap lol!
