Can anyone tell me the difference and if drive tires last longer why not put them on a trailer?
What's the difference between a trailer tire and all position tire?

Look at oil field trailers, they have drive tires on them. Trailer tires have less rolling resistance. Drive tires usually have a more aggressive tread pattern and help in mud/snow.Bean Jr. and BUMBACLADWAR Thank this. -
Drive tires and all positions tires can withstand torque of drive axle trailer tires cannot,

Also many tires labeled as trailer only have about 14/32's while an all position probably has 18 or 20/32's.
