Default Re: Trailer tire recommendation

Realisticly any good 235/85/16 truck tire withan E rating or better should give good service unless your trailer is extremly heavy. I would assume you are towing with a dually and this is the tire used for years on those trucks until recently where the 17 and 18 inch tires came on the market. I used this size tires on all of my duallys and never had a problem. My trailer has Goodyear e rated tires on it now with many miles w/ no problems. Like the others have said stay away from the marathons. I had some Dayton commercial rated tires on my last dually that wore like iron. They would be a good choice too.
