[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1610512, member: 2736"] One other thing that Is important (At least to me) is that trailer tires don't have to have a built in safety factor like car and truck tires (Anything that hauls passengers) do. so if you buy a trailer tire and a car/truck tire with the same load rating, the passenger tire will be stronger and actually have more load capacity than the trailer tire because of the extra strength that the safety factor adds. I always recommend going at least one or two load ratings higher than the trailer and if possible use passenger tires. I have had bad experiences with trailer only tires and no longer buy them. some say the passenger tires cost more. but the last trailer tire failure cost me a fender, rim and a spare tire mounted directly behind the blow out side. (Plus a set of shorts). Keep them aired and covered. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
