Trailer tire size

[tom03]

On my Eagle tandem trailer I have F78-14 ST tires.<br />I think thats an old numbering system. Does anyone know what tire size that would be ?

That would be 205-75 D14.

Or 205-75R14 if you go with radials.

Re: Trailer tire size

Thanks a lot.<br />Is there anything special about trailer tires or can I just buy any regular 205-75R14 ?

Re: Trailer tire size

Yes, trailer tires have a much stiffer sidewall, can run with more pressure and have an ST designation on them.

Re: Trailer tire size

tom,<br /><br />You DO NOT want passenger car tires. The ST or "trailer" rating should still apply.

tom03 - Goodyear is perhaps the best known of several companies that make ST205/75R14 tires. Surely the Motor City has Goodyear dealers aplenty . Good luck with your new tires.
