Tires

Well looks like I'm going to have to get a set of tires. Get rid of the China Bomb tires. Looking at the Goodyear Endurance for$740 out the door.
Bad part is I'm going to have to take two tires off at a time,but that's ok with me.

To ease the sting a bit check out Carlisle Radisl Trail HD's. I swapped mine out this week. First time pulling the trailer with them this weekend. Significant difference. Same load rating as the Castle Rocks but the behaved much better. I saved about $150 out the door over the GY's on 5 tires. Plus, I was able to get them faster. I was pleased to see all 5 date codes 0621.

If you have enough jack stands you could remove all 4 tires at once.

Don't forget your spare.

I have 4 jack stands. Now would I have to raise my stabilizer jacks or could I just extend them so they are just touching the ground.

The stabilizer jacks should be retracted to avoid bending the trailer frame by inadvertently putting pressure on them.

Jack up one side of the trailer. Insert jack stand (or 2). Remove two wheels. Fo the same to the other side. No need for scissor jacks.
