    Default Rotate trailer tires?


    I getting ready to install new bearing kits on my tires in the next week or so, and think I may rotate my tires again. I rotate them twice a year, does anybody else do this, or am I thinking too much?

    Never done it on a trailer and thought the reason you did it on a car was the front tires wear more due to turning???

    Twice a year can't hurt anything. I do mine once a year. Just front to rear, don't cross them.

    I don't on my tandem. No uneven wear on any of my tires.

    My trailer only has two wheels but I have a brand new spare (new boat as well) that I will rotate in. Doesn't make any sense to me to never use my spare.

    Wow my spare is 18 years old (the original) and never touched the ground. I have replaced trailer tires twice in that same amount of time. I would only use the spare in case of emergency and by two new ones Quick!
