Tire
Safety
All your
trailer
tires
should
be the
same
type,
size,
and
construction—do
not mix
bias-belted
and
radial
tires.
In
selecting
tires
for your
trailer,
buy the
size,
type,
and load
range
found on
the
trailer’s
certification
label or
in the
owner’s
manual.
Keep in
mind
that
tires
have a
load
rating
that
indicates
the
amount
of
weight
they can
carry
safely.
As with
your tow
vehicle,
always
maintain
proper
tire
pressure
and
replace
worn
tires.
Remember—your
tow
vehicle
tires
may
require
a higher
tire
pressure
for
towing,
especially
heavy
loads.
