I have the 8 ply Carliles on my 10K trailer. I bought brand new ones when I drove up here, so far so good!

I spent like $210 for the new tire and a new valve stem. I will have check to see what its specs are. Its suppose to be a better tire!

The tires I have on the ol' Caddy are a little over $250 each...
18 inch tires are expensive....

After another flat tire I have concluded that my brother's load on my trailer caused the leaf spring to go flat. When I placed the old leaf spring over top the new one this was extremely evident to be true...

So now after blowing about $400's in newer tires and spending $335 on 2 tires from a whole sale distributor and a new leaf spring I think that I may be back on the road... Just in time to be 3 days behind due to this mess.... At least my brother helped me a little tonight. Would have been nice if he offered to pay for this mess. I was like... Don't worry. I didn't make any money today...

I swear, somedays you just can't fix stupid.

At least you're on the road to a real fix and not still hunting for the problem. :thumbs:
