Light Truck Tires

[kinggartk]

Looking to replace the tires that came on my trailer when I bought it.

I know that Maxis and Carlisle seem to be the top choices for replacing ST tires.

Is there any reason why I shouldn't put some Light Truck tires on instead?

King, this is a subject that would best be researched by you on the forum archives. There is a veritable plethora of info to be had on that exact subject.

If you do, be mindful of the weight rating on the tires. That's all I'm saying about it! Lol!

The Bullet 2510BH is a tandem axle trailer with 205/75R 14C OEM tires/wheels.

I'm not aware of any LT tires in that size that have the capacity needed to support the trailer's GVW. Upsizing to 15" wheels would likely not improve the abilitiy to use LT tires as there are none with a large enough capacity to support the trailer GVW. I would urge caution with "P" series tires in any towing environment.
