I've been involved in the tire industry in the past, and have a couple of close friends that own tire stores. I still don't understand why my trailer tires have such a short life. Two years ago I replaced two tires on my 40' gooseneck, and last year replaced the other six. This trailer is used during the summer to haul my pullers, and in the fall for some plow days.
