Ketchafew Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 For everyone that bought the Amara Trail trailer with your boat it most likely came with Rainier tires. If you have replaced them what tire did you go with? I've been disappointed with the wear and durability of the Rainier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jh141 Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 I have been using these for years. They do not break the bank and I have not had a failure. I buy them on line and have my local tire shop mount them for me. https://simpletire.com/brands/power-king-tires/towmax-str-ii#curationPos=none&curationSeq=none&curationSource=none&itemId=166063&mpn=MAX37T&pageSource=PDP&productPos=none®ion=r4&tireSize=st205-75rr14&userRegion=4&userZip=35649&zip=35649 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 I used to buy Maxxis radial trailer tires but for some reason my tire store said he couldn’t source them any longer. The last set I bought were GoodYear endurance. If you google best trailer tire and the hull truth you will see post after post on the good year Endurance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Seither Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 Goodyear Endurance, if somehow someone offers goodyear marathon trailer tires ( I think they have been discontinued) run!!!! They were the best at throwing the belt blowing out without notice!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jh141 Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 We used Goodyear Trailer tires on our Race car trailer. They were good for at least one blowout a year. Our last race was Sept. 2013 with a LLM win at New Smyrna Speedway. The Racing Community avoided them and we were racing on Goodyear Racing tires at times, but mostly on Hosiers. I have been baffled for years as why Goodyear trailer tires get good reviews from the Boating community. George may have hit it, I believe what we used were Marathons. Looks like Endurance may be much better. For what they cost they better be! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCFD rtrd. Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 When I needed new tires on my 2013 Amera Trail, I did lots of research. Most sites recommended Goodyear Endurance. Trailer tires are not built to the same standard as passenger vehicle tires and that's why most trailer tires are speed rated at 65mph. The speed rating is stamped right on the side along with weight and air pressure ratings. The Goodyear Endurance is speed rated to 90mph which would suggest that it's a better-quality product. I bought mine from Walmart (best price) and had them delivered to my local Walmart which has an automotive/ tire shop. They mounted and balanced all five tires (one spare) for a very reasonable price. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbspecial Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 I have had good experience with Goodyear endurance as well. The trailer pulls much straighter and with a lot less side to side sway vs the cheap tires that come on from the factory. I purchased min from Wal Mart online as well.

Tender Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 I have several thousand miles on Carlisle Radial Trail HD's and have been happy with them. Goodyear Endurance isn't offered in a C rated tire for my use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamaskeet Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 I have a 2021 Ameratrail and the Rainer tires have been ok. One tire wore unevenly, so I made it the spare and the others are wearing evenly. After the tire wear issue, I bought 4 Goodyear Endurance tires but haven’t installed them, waiting for the Rainer tires to show more wear.
