Default Trailer tires

If I were you I'd use LT tires (light truck), and run 'em at their rated
60psi (60-65 is about normal for LT tires (should be written on them,
often is)).


The LTX tires on my van has a max pressure of 35 psi so be careful
what you select.

I ran radials at 35 psi on my Minden trailer and it was far better on
rough roads and uneven freeway pavement than my new Cobra which has
smaller wheels and higher pressure tires. I sometimes think getting
the heavy duty suspension was a mistake. It seems too stiff for the
trailer weight.
