Trailer tires.
 

Some of us tow more than 3 miles to boat launch. What tires u runnin?
Took boat to the bay. Tires were fine, date on them is 2020. Went to load boat up and noticed cords busted on one tire. Put spare on. Half hour into trip home other 2020 tire blows up. So I put one with broken cords on and drove 45 mph home. Took a long time. They were tomax made in thialand. Spare is dated 2001!
China tires are around $85. Goodyear are $205. Thats a big difference. Worth it?

If there are a few hundred customer reviews on the China tires, and they’ve been around long enough to test longevity, you might get a fair idea of whether you want them.

Don t mention if your a single axle or tandem.

If tandem get cheap ones, if single get good ones.

single axle. Old tires were 10 ply. Tire shop said they are good tires. I think thats what I have on my camper too. Now im worried.
Have a beach trip coming up soon. 4.5 hr drive wife towing boat, Im towing camper.

More important than the brand or the price.... make sure the tires are load rated for the weight you are carrying at the speed you are towing.... including gas and gear Pretty much any brand name will last you a good long time. Firestone, BF Goodrich, Goodyear, Yokohama, Michelin. If you are a member of Costco or Sam's club or BJ's you can usually get good deals on tires from them.

$95 for the same Chinese tires I have now.
$150 for 14 ply better Chinese tires.
$205 for Goodyear.
Tire shop guy said he would run the cheap ones if it was his. Since it doesn't get used much.
I do have an extra spare I can throw in the truck that fits both boat trailer and camper. Plus they each have a spare.

I just bought tires for my single axle 16 ft aluminum boat. Small trailer tires but they look very good. With rims. , I’m going to need tires for my wellcraft trailer,single axle I’m going to. Amazon. Prices are good and there return policy is good. I don’t know what tires are better ,just get tires for a trailer. Check Amazon

I don't buy from Amazon unless its a last resort. I like to help the local businesses. But I'm changing where I buy tires. I spend a lot of $ each year on tires. Dump truck, pickup, suv, camper and boat.

Ended up with 2 new China bombs, Hercules 10 ply. Hope they last a little while before the blow up.

Gotta love the non-Chinese names they come up with for the Chinese stuff.
