[QUOTE="double browtine, post: 5702993, member: 9490"] I would run them about 7-8 psi under the rating on the tire. Trailer tires are a total joke sometimes. Some are really good and others are junk. It doesn’t matter what the name brand is. I had a spare on my bass boat trailer years ago that never saw the pavement. It was a Goodyear radial trailer tire. I kept it at 40psi. The only time it ever saw sunlight was the days I went fishing. I kept a boat cover on the boat that covered the tire too. One summer the kids were playing outside and heard a loud noise. I was at work and my wife was inside and heard it too. I got home and they told me about it. Couldn’t find anything out of place. A couple weeks later I took the cover off to go fishing and found the tire had exploded. It blew the outside tread off and split just like in pic 7mm08 posted. Except it blew it off 3/4 the way around the tire. It was a 6 yr old tire with zero dry rot. [/QUOTE]
