Tires

Going to change out the 14" tires on my Gray Wolf Pup in the spring. Any suggestions as to brand, load rating etc.. Thanks.

If one was to conduct a poll I think the Goodyear Endurance line would win hands down.

Also popular enough they are in short supply. I replaced my factory supplied tires last year and couldn't be happier with the GY Endurance, also 14".

Another vote for Goodyear Endurance tires. I have owned 2 TT and both have factory tires replaced with GY. From what I hear they are in short supply due to I believe both the pandemic and shutting down production for a period and manufactures are switching over to them as factory applied tires.

Definitely Goodyear Endurance tires. I have them on both of my trailers and have had zero issues. And they're made in the USA.

I put Carlisle Radial Trail HD Load Range D on our 23 foot Rockwood 3 years ago. They still look like new. Have been very happy with them. I paid $50 each at Walmart.

Tire Fun

There are DEFINITELY a TON of posts all over the place about tires and the proverbial "China Bombs" everyone likes to post about. On our first ROO I kept the stock tires and right at the 3.75 going into 4th year mark our fist issue appeared. Was fortunate enough to catch it at a Rest Stop where one tire had a huge bubble on the tread surface (not the sidewall) and I spare tired myself the last 20 minutes of driving to our campground and replaced all 4. At that time the local deal (shout out for Smith Family Tire in Arden, NC) was SUPER helpful and got "Towstar" tires which were wonderful the three years we drove them until we traded our old trailer for our current one.

The new trailer at less than a year with Castle Rock brand I was lucky enough once again to catch this in the driveway at home!


EEK! That scared the crap out of me for sure! THEN I started calling around town and checking on-line for Goodyear Endurance tires… almost EVERYONE said the same thing… “National backorder, nobody has them…” but lo and behold, the wonderful Wally World came through AGAIN!... Through their website and a partner “Powerseller” named ecustomhitch I found a two pack of just what I needed for $224….. bought 2 of them on a late Saturday and waited for shop to open on Monday to call and make sure they had them, had the tires on my front door step by Thursday… HOLY COW!!

These are GREAT looking tires with a super date code and Load Range D just like I needed, call me ONE HAPPY CAMPER! ;-)
