    Any old hands remember Seiberling Tire? They were big time in the old tube type 10-22 days. Built by Goodyear and named after Goodyears founder Frank Sieberling. I still have one or two on some old wheels out back. Lol

    I ask this same question on here about a month ago and got about the same response. I bought this trailer new and it came with Double Coin. Those lasted about 110,000. I bought Bridgestone 196A’s and those lasted around 150,000 but were pricey when I was searching back last month for a new set. I settled on Firestone FT409’s this time. The price was decent for tires and if they last as long as the Bridgestone I’ll stick with them. If they don’t I’ll go back with the Bridgestone’s and just eat the extra cost. I haul anything that will go on a flatbed light, heavy as long as it’s paying what I want I haul it. I don’t put recaps on anything regardless of the cost savings. Hope this helps you on your decision.
