That's where I've gotten all my tires for the last 15 years or more.

just make sure you get trailer tires not car or truck, lots of dealers
will sell you light truck tires and these tires will heat up under load. pay close attention to the " ply rateing " this is the most important part of your purchess.

Here is an idea on tires. Instead of going to the chain store, get a price from an independent. Most belong to an association that allows them to give you the same pricing as the 'big guys'. Guys I go to offer the same services eg free flat repair & rotations

Same idea as supporting your local fishing store rather than just going to BPS.....

Try WWW.TIRERACK. I get them installed @ Big O and the Big O manager says my internet price beats what he can get them for at
his supplier.

STAY AWAY FROM CARLISLE.... the best I can say is that they are crap!!!!! had three out of four blow on one trip after having them on for 6 months. My family and friends had them on thier trailers and have had numerous blow outs......I purchased the Goodyear Marathon and have not had a single problem and they are wearing great!

One other note about the Marathon trailer tire, it is one of few, if not the only trailer tire that can be repaired.
