Well I had my trailer tire blow out at 75mph on long trip back from the coast. I’m looking to replace all my trailer tires but I want to increase my capacity, I would have thought that these should have lasted longer. Our boat is a 2016 21 SPX on a galvanized Shorelandr. I have approximately 8000 miles on the trailer, and always check tire pressure to make sure it is at full spec (50psi).
Stock tire size is 175/80 r13 load range C (Carlisle Radial Trail RH). I’m thinking of putting on 185/80r13 load range D. My thought is that the increased capacity should give me more safety factor for my long trailer distances. Anyone done similar or have thoughts?
