17.5's

If he was a typical farm boy it would probably have 4 different sizes on it.

 

I know what I got I just don't know why I wrote 17.5, if I order another trailer I will most likely go with 19.5, I've never been in the situation that I needed to go lower, but if you are in the situation that you need a 32in deck height then go for it

 

I run 17.5 on my low step.
Road Master (Cooper) 16 ply = $200 - $250 service call / installed in NJ area but hard to find
Michelin same rated 17.5 $400 - everyone was pushing them

I'll stick w/ RM for now - 75-80mph - one load from MI to CA, followed by load of bees from CA to LA and another from AL to CA. All heavy, two of which I needed OW Permits. Even had two over 46k on rear trailer axle for CA in closed tandem. I could get two sets a year compared to a big name brand and so far they handles / wears fine. Can't beat the math.

 

Ive just never had good luck with 16ply non michelins

 

We had a trailer with little tires....it was a tandem Hay is heavy. Couldn't keep brakes on it. Stopping power not as good. Should travel a little slower in the summer to avoid blowouts. Really need to watch your air pressure to avoid blowouts. Hard to find replacement tires and rims on the road. If you get and extra axle for braking power then your tare takes a hit.

On the up side, the DOT are less likely to crawl under there.

 

are you trucking that hay east?
