I have the 15" denman's. Only starting on my second year with them.
I have a friend that has a heavier boc trailier than mine (dirt car, observation roof, loads of spare tires)
that runs them and he hasn;t had any trouble yet with them.
made in Mexico I think.

Yes I was aware they are made in Mexico. Can anyone else comment on this tire or availabilty or service or price. Going to a 16" is no doubt the best cure, but there must be a better 15" alternative.

After I blew out a couple of Goodyears I checked around and "Towmaster" tires had a good reputation and I bought a set. Good luck so far but I have not got that many miles on them. I run them on a 24ft Classic RTX. The are sold by a company named Greenball. They can be made most anywere in the world. I was told mine would be made in India but when I got them they had been made in Canada. I can't remember the dealer I got them from but could find out if it was important.

When I was doing the search on Greenball I was suprised to see that Jeg's is selling them now.

Good Luck,
Bill

I've been running a Light Truck tire on my trailer hauling my 3700lb Chevelle, been to Goodlettsville,Tn once, Centerville,Ar.,Ark City,KS., Tulsa,Ok several times and my weekly bracket racing at the local track 35 miles away. They've been on the trailer for 3yrs so far.

I have had good luck with the maxxis. I never could get the goodyears to hold up. I put 12 goodyears on in one season. I just replaced with a new set of maxxis because of a blowout but i got to checking and the old maxxis had more than 50000 miles on them and were about 6 years old and my trailer sets in the yard not inside. I dont think you can find a better 15" trailer tire. Hope this helps..............clarence woodham

If you stay with 15", the Maxxis load range E at 80 psi seems to be the best, but as someone once said, the best 15" is not as good as the worst 16".

Many Jeep vehicles have 16" wheels with 4.5" BP.

Offset would be the problem there, with the Jeep wheels, I think. Dick, you can get other hubs, to go to a 4 3/4, if you can find those. I dont know I didnt look for those though. Mine are 6 lug.

If you have a 3500 lb axle , just find a 8 ply 15" LT tire, like a 215/80 or 85 or so.
