Trailer Tires

How often do you replace yours? Mine only lasted 8 months of use three days a week.

Dry rot usually gets to mine long before the tread is gone. But I can usually get 3 years out of them.

I use mine all year long and mostly in winter so I rarely get dry rot

Yeah me too, but it's only 1/2 mile to the water.

You might want to go to a tire shop and get a better rated tire. Most stores only carry light load rated trailer tires, a tire shop can order some that have heavier load rating and better tread wear.

Look at the load range rating on the tire, should be B, C, D, E or something like that. Make sure you keep them properly inflated per the poundage on the tire.

The worn ones came on the trailer. I upgraded to better ones.

Tire shop (mitchem tire and wheel) said I should get two to three years on my new ones . Sound right?
