Not having much luck with Hiway Trooper LT235/85/R16, Load Range G tires that came stock on my 2005 37' Sandpiper - I have had three tread separations. What is everyone else running?
My trailer is about 11k# unladen and close to 15k# loaded. With only two axles and these tires maxed at 3750 lbs each at 110 psi - I'm maxed out - that might be why I'm seeing them fail.
Any other good manufacturers for Load Range G tires out there? Any other suggestions?

I am new here but trailers tires have always drove me nuts. It seems they just don't hold up as well as expected. I seem to think they are designed to go straight with no side load like is seen with multi-axel trailers. A good set of BF Goodrich LT265-75-R16 will have a load rating of about 3400lbs.
