    Default A Tire Question


    I need to replace the tires on my 2005 Tracker PT175. The size is ST175/80D 13. What would be a good brand? And should I go to a radial rather than a bias ply? The ones presently on it came on it. No dry rot or cracks but 16 years is very old for a tire even when it is garage kept!

    Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

    I’m using Maxis. The tire guru said they’re really good. I’ve had tire probs on my toon trailer and these are supposed to be very durable. Name:  IMG_0191.jpg

    Jerry, the Duro brand is what I run in that size. They are Tawian made. I've had a lot better luck out of them than the Chinese made tires. I got a new on a few weeks ago, $64.00
    I had heard the Giti tire here in SC was going to start making 13" trailer tires. Most of the 13" trailer tires are China made, shy away from them if you can.

    DONT go with a regular radial car tire. Make sure you get TRAILER tires. Been there....done that.

    Thanks all. I settled in for Loadstar Karrier trailer radial tires. Will be here on the 16th.

    Happy fishing to all and thanks.
