Didn't even know that. Some people who tow then drive way too fast I see on the road...

Yes they do, then lots of them complain about the amount of blowouts they have had. Phil from Phil's tire and I had a long talk about trailer tires and speed one night at VIR.

Not that anyone listens to that :lol:

Seriously, don't go more than 70mph on those tires and even that is stretching it.

quoted for truth.

I've towed at 70 since buying my trailer (and immediately putting new tires on it) but hesitate to go much faster beyond a brief burst of speed to pass someone (very rarely, really). New tires every 2-3 years and avoiding overloading the axles helps with general trailer problems while on the go, but yeah, watch your speed.

Upgrading to radial trailer tires has been great for me.

With my new enclosed I usually don't go above 60.

I bought my trailer with the biggest tires I could find after dealing with dinky 14/15 inchers on my previous enclosed. My trailer tires dont even get warm after a 5 hour tow anymore and I always tow between 65-70.

My old enclosed with 14/15inch tires? Had to keep it below 65.
