Picked up some different wheels with almost new tires yesterday, debating if i should run centercaps:
Rolled up next to trailer:
Tire tread:
Installed:
Same basic design as the other ones I bought but these are 14" and had amazing tires. I'm selling the other rims without tires for the same as I paid for all 4 of these! The tires are rated at 1819lbs per tire with the same ply count as the 2 Maxxis trailer tires currently on there (which are rated at 1820lbs per tire). I talked with a trailer manufacturer and they said it's safe to run truck/car tires but to subtract 20% off the total load carrying capacity of all the tires and that should be your max total load with trailer and cargo to be safe. The Passport will be a few hundred pounds below max using this theory and when I haul our car projects (all will be about 3500lbs or less) it will be well below. I will get some Goodyear trailer tires for it eventually but I think these will work out nicely for a little while, especially with the short trips the trailer will see right now.
