For the guys with 15" tires, there are 6 hole 16" wheels (alum) available that are pretty cheap. That with 16" E (10 Ply) rating will work fine for a two axle trailer. When you order a new trailer, the price difference between the 5000 axles 6 hole 15" tire vs. the 6000 8 hole 16 is very little and they should have at least 8 ply tires on it standard. My opinion Marathons are junk. In all the years I have found once you blow, the rest follow. Three axle heavy trailers are the real problem.
