Larger tire question for my Wildwood

Is it ok to go up form 205 to 215 size tires on my 2018 23bhxl Wildwood XL TT? Getting rid of the China Bombs that are rotting after on 2 years old.

I don't know about that 215 size because some specs depend on the next number on the tire...

look up the size info and find exact info like in the picture below... only other thing is do some clearance measurements on the top sides where a larger tire may rub on the frame

Got my new Endurance tires yesterday finally. Forest River said it was ok to go up to ST215 from 205 but cannot go to a 15" rim stay at 14. Drove it 20 miles home and what a difference. Smooth ride with little strain on my truck.

Just to double check. You now have 215/75/14 . You still running D rated.

I’ve got a new 263BHXL, and I probably will upgrade as well after this season. I don’t trust the junk that’s on there now, as I believe the tires are the weakest point on any trailer.

Yes and they are so much better than the Castlerocks that were on there.
