Tires..........

I had a blowout with my power towing trail express on my Freedom Express. I planned on trading next year or getting a new set of rubber next season. Any way, for now I need to replace the spare. I understand these tires are crappy. Advice on another brand or run another one of these till next season, which will result in a new TT or new tires then.

If you go to a certain tire shop just ask them for recommendations and have them explain why the are suggesting what ever brand.

Have them show you a tire, look it over and compare it to what you have is it better or not.

Normally, depending on the blowout circumstances, a tire retailer familiar with trailer tires would recommend changing the tire that sustained all the weight of the blown tire after it let go. At the very minimum, it should be disassembled and inspected for damage. Without visible damage I'd recommend making it the spare.
