Went to hookup my trailer today and discovered that one of its two tires had BLOWN. It was clearly a blowout where one section of the tire tread blew apart.

This particular trailer had been sitting for about 7 months, with the tires on cement patio blocks, with about 45 lbs of air in them. (I think they are rated for 52 lbs. . . . "C")

The tire had plenty of tread, and last time I looked at it, it looked fine.

I’m going to replace it (and the other side) of course.

This is a 6 x 12 single axle cargo trailer.

What is the usable life of a 15" trailer tire ?

Are some brands better ?

Radials ?

6ply or 8ply ?

What do you recommend ?
