Re: [A/S] More tire questions




You should at least try to match the existing tires if only replacing two. 
Best to replace all four, keep the best of the old for a spare, (a new rim 
for it 15x6x5.5 2600# rated). The tire of choice is the Goodyear Marathon 
ST225x75Rx15, same load range if you have steel wheels, or up it to Load 
Range "D" if you have aluminum wheels, a few $$$ more, but they'll last 
longer. There are alot of other manufacturers making trailer service tires 
too, (I'd stay away from Sumotomo, had a real bad experience balancing a set 
of these one tire was 18 ounces out of balance).
