Landstar is digging up old junk trailers. Picked up a preloaded one with 5 tires 8 years old. Replaced 3.
I won't mention the wtf cracked frame. Trailer had obviously been sitting for a long, long time.
Tire shortage

I just went through the same ordeal with my drives and trailer tires. Everybody carries them in my area. The problem was that choices were extremely limited due to no stock. Shortage everywhere for tall 24s. I ended up with Marathons on my drives and Roadmaster RM234s on the trailer.
