Goodyear Marathon's
Maxxis 8008 ST

I personally won't use the Goodyears anymore. I've had too many issues. I just put the Maxxis on the trailer a few weeks ago, my own research led me to believe that it's the right move.

Those Carlisles are not bad.
When we replace trailer tires, we try to get the next higher load range. Sometimes this may require a different valve stem. No one ever overloads their trailer, right? Our pace came with tires that were barely rated for the loaded weight of the trailer.

I have four brand new trailer tires that are higher load rated - C I believe. Bought them and never mounted, sold the trailer. I'll sell to you for a killer price - they have been in my heated garage for two summers.
15 inches - got to check the other size info and confirm load rating. They will be going on ebay shortly.

WE found the same thing had load range c on trailer which was abosulute min. Then moved to D. Last time I ordered got Package of new wheels(just the standard white spoke) and they had load range E on and that is what we ended up with now on all 4 axles.. I have stuck with Carlisle which seem to be fine just keep the pressure at Max for most load carrying. The E's are 80PSI. T W

You may want to to be careful of the Chinese tires. A friend put 4 on his enclosed trailer, having used his old tires with no problems for more than 20,000 miles. He lost 2 of his new Chinese tires on his first trip. Cheap tires from no-name manufacturers can be expensive.
