If it had just turned loose and started flopping there's no telling what kind of damage would have occurred.

Good point, are the Carlise a better grade tire than the trailer kings? I was trying to find reviews on the HDs but couldn't find anything. Found quite a few reviews that are 5+ years old on the net and a lot were saying they were a cheap tire and bottom quality. If I'm going to pay up I would rather do it right the first time and find the best tires I can. The most expensive I found were the HDs and the Maxxis 8008.
