On my enclosed trailer I like the 10 ply trailer tires.
I keep the tires covered but still it seems just before a long trip I'll find one with a pulled belt or side bulge that I replace immediately.
Towing is inherently dangerous.
I don't loan out my trailer just to protect the tires and trailer condition.
I don't use tires older than 7 years based on the build date on the tire.
My spare is also replaced after 7 years even if it was always in the trailer and never used.
Knock on wood I've only had one trailer tire fail in 35 years of towing.


I'd use 8 ply on a lighter car trailer.
Car radials are not the best choice.
