Recommendation for 10 Ply Rated Trailer Tire Size ST225/75-15

Question:

I want to replace the tires on my 5th wheel. They are 225-75 -15 inch rims - 8ply rating. Would like to replace with the best 10ply tire thats available, cost is not a factor. What would you advise me to buy?

I recommend trailer tire # AM10303 which is an ST225/75-15 tires load range E rated for 2,830 pounds at 80 psi. This tire does have a 10 ply rating. I have linked a video review of this tire for you.

Trailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum psi indicated on the tire sidewall. Trailer tires have a thicker sidewall compared to passenger vehicle tires so if under inflated the thicker sidewall will generate excessive heat and lead to tire failure. I have included a link to our help article on trailer tires for you.
