    Replacing Trailer Tires

    I need to replace my trailer tires. Seems like it is pretty cheap to buy wheels with tires already mounted and balanced. Is there a best practice for this? Any (preferably local) retailers I should go to first?

    This was my first thought. Will they mount them on your old wheels or do you just buy a whole new wheel/tire?

    I just bought a set (bias ply) with wheels from PepBoys. The set with wheels was only marginally more than just the tires so it made for an easy decision (and I have a tire machine).

    Hurry up and go to Pepboys...

    got the carlisle radial tires for 90 bucks including rim. Some technical error i guess since its 125 on their website. FYI for the same tire and rim i paid 150+ at tractor supply.

    I say hurry to pepboys cause they know about the error and are making sure their prices go to 125 which is still cheaper than tractor supply.

    This is what i got..

    tires are super smooth on the road.
