I'm getting ready to order an enclosed trailer to haul my antique cars. Is it worth the extra money to buy radial tires ??? I'll probably only use it 4 or 5 times a yaer. Thanks for any help
(quoted from post at 22:40:12 12/26/12) We have a 6x10 foot cargo trailer - came with TRAILER radials. Not commonly available, had to buy a conventional bias ply for a spare. (new on rim.)
The ONE good thing about radial trailer tires is they'll save fuel. That is why semi trailers use them.(quoted from post at 18:52:04 12/27/12) If the bias tire was so good how come you don't see bias tires on semi trailers anymore?

(quoted from post at 19:43:16 12/27/12) What matters more than anything is:
1. QUALITY of the tire. Many trailer tire brands are not good.
2. HOW the tire is used. Overloaded and/or run soft is hard on a tire.
3. HOW the tire is stored. Left in the sun is really hard on a tire, especially a trailer tire that doesn't get used much. On a working truck the tires get rolled on a regular basis, which keeps the material supple.
