Default Trailer tires?

I was wondering if you guys knew where I could find new tires for my trailer? I would also like to find a spare kit for it also since the prev. owner never had one. Looking for a place online since the local tire shops told me like $80-90 each since oil prices! Seems really high.

NITRO,
I have tried many different brands of trailer tires over the years, and have never found anything that towed better than Good Year. As far as I am concerned, Good year car tires SUCK, but thier trailer tires can not be beat!!!

Your tires will ship from the South Bend, IN warehouse and you will have them the next day after ordering with ground shipping. I buy a lot of tires and always get them from here.

my currant trailer tire is a kumo trailer radial.. always go with a radial i have gone the bias route -no thanks- remember most trailers wear the inside of the tire off.. goodyear cost out the but, however they are the best you can get.. goodyear marthons and the kumo jobs i use have 12 ply side walls..this is so when a tire goes at normal highway speeds the tread which is 4-6 ply will explode first. by the time you get stopped you just have to replace the tire. any other tire with a standard 4-6 ply side wall by the time you get stopped you will also need to buy a new $600 mag rim..

I am not sure if I have a favorite brand tires BUT if you are sitting on the side of the highway with a blow out because you tried to save 10 bucks you will be kicking your self
