I spoke to the Dexter service mgr about the problem and his story is that a bent or otherwise axle problem would cause the tire to wear on one side or other but not on both. Everyone who saw the tire said it was run under-inflated, but I know it wasn't. Finally pulled the trailer to the local tire shop. The manager there spotted the bald tire as a separation and the one next to it as well. The two on the right side look like new. The two bad tires are going back to Goodyear; will let you know when/if we hear from them. Didn't even consider taking this to Keystone.
Decided to replace all four with Sailuns. They are 14 ply tires, stand slightly taller than the Goodyears and weigh about twice as much. Someone on another thread asked what we thought of the Marathons. We pulled these about 25,000 miles in 21 months with no problems. All four held pressure; never had to add more than 5 lbs. of air at a time. We were advised when we bought the trailer to replace tires every two years; almost made it.
