Trailer Tire Replacement Recommendation for 1974 Shasta 1400 with Size 185/75-14

Question

Question:

I have a 1974 Shasta 1400 Travel Trailer with 14inch Rims. What would be the recommended tire replacement size and type? I currently have 185 75 R14 tires on this trailer, but am uncertain if this is the correct tire to be using.

Expert Reply:

Your current tire size is not a standard trailer tire size, so you'd want to replace it with the most similar size which happens to be the 205/75R14 like the part # TR20514. This tire has a capacity of 1,760 lbs at 50 psi and has a speed rating of 81 mph.

I attached a review video for this tire for you to check out as well.
