Last week I was coming home from Havasu and my trailer tire blew. I changed it on the side of rice road (that was an adventure in itself as trucks were passing by me). The tires were Chinese made that were purchase at Big O tires. They were almost three years old, correctly inflated (maximum 50 pounds cold / I had them at 45 pounds) and the weather was hot that day, 110 degrees on the road.
As I did my research for new tires, I was told most of the trailer tires are poorly made and from China. I understand changing trailer tires should be done every 5 or more years. I was told by a tire shop that the Maxxis M8008 trailer tire was a good value. Anyone have any feedback on Maxxis tires? They are a little more in price but I'm willing to pay for a better quality tire. Also, any other recommendations on a trailer tire would help out.
Thanks,
