Trsiler Tiers OR Light Truck?

I have a 2010 24' enclosed that came with 235/80/16 Goodyear Marathon tires that I plan to replace shortly due to age. The tires are covered in the summer when it sits outside and it is stored inside on concrete on plywood.

They look new, but I do not want to take the chance of blowing one and tearing up the wheel well.

I plan to go with the new Goodyear Endurance ST tires because of USA made and the reviews on the tires.

My last two trailers came with goodyear's. They said they were good trailer tires. After changing way too many and replacing both fenders on the last trailer I will not buy anything g Goodyear that they say is good. They said the marathons were good. We all know how that worked out. And the G159 motorhome tires. I have my doubts about goodyear right now.

If your raise the trailer so the tires are off the ground in the off season you will see an increase in tire life wether LT or trailer tires. In the NE our off season is 6 months long. I used to put the trailer on jack stands now I use trailer legs, much easier. Prior to getting the tires off the ground every 3 to 4 years the tires would blow out.
