Radial Tire Recommendation for Size ST205/75D15 Replacement
Question:
I have a 5foot x 10foot utility trailer and need new tires. It originally came with ST205 75D15 that did not wear well. People have suggested to use a radial tire or a 8 or 10 ply truck tire. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks for your help.

Expert Reply:
I would recommend you stick with the same size tire you currently have except a radial like what others have suggested. For that you would want the part # TTWTRTM2057515C.
For tire wear and capacity reasons you always want to keep your trailer tires inflated to their max psi.
A radial tire flexes more than a bias tire, giving it better ground contact, traction, stability, and tread wear.
A radial tire will normally run cooler than a bias ply tire, especially when the tire is under a load. A tire that runs cooler will last longer.
