 Astro Tandem Trailer Question Reply  Edit


What size tires are on your trailer if you are pulling a tandem trailer? Anyone know what was recommended concerning size and load class? I need to get some new ones and what the tire place is suggesting sounds kind of high to me.
Thanks!

okay, okay... last cast, after this one.

My Astro had a plate on the trailer frame. Check the frame inside before the tongue and see if there is a plate there. It tell the GVW etc. and tire size nd pressure. Just be sure you get trailer tires. I think the number start with "ST" if I am not mistaken.

Found it, but having a difficult time finding affordable 205/75/r14 D load range. Just the tire at Northern Tool is 99.99.

Good luck finding afordable trailer tires because they are about $80 everywhere I checked and that was 3 years ago. You might try ebay and find a good deal.

What load range would you suggest? The carry weight on the tag says 3,900, but I had a tire guy tell me that I would need D class instead of C. Thoughts?
