So I had a blow out on the trailer 50 miles out from Cordova on the way home. This is not really news, is it. So, I bought these warranted tires in 2011. So I went to the tire store and he jokes about putting a patch on this 6 inch diameter tire and then says, that will be $15 dollars. I said that sounds like a screaming deal! He said, well, some people complain. I am thinking, these people just don't know trailer tires. Well, here is the tire details:
ST225/75R15E1 1117 B CARLISLE RADIAL TRAILER BSL bought at Discount tire. When I bought them it was a "lifetime warranty". I thought, holy cow, how can I go wrong? Then, hey, whats the life considered? Well, so far so good. But I bet I'll be back a couple of more times, eh?

In my opinion all Trailer tires are JUNK!!!!!!! 8 years ago I put a set of 225 X 75 X 16 Commercial Truck Tires on my trailer and they are still on it. I estimate that they have over 45,000 hard miles on them with no flats and they still look good! They were about $25.00 a tire more than the Trailer tires I was running. 16" tires are much better than 15" also. My advice, spend the money now on a set of 16" wheels and Commercial Truck Tires and be done with it. Ask Bruemmer about it! Good luck. Chis.

I agree with the fact they are all junk. I wish you had told me about the commercial truck tires a couple of years ago. That is obviously the way to go.
As I said above as well, I WILL be back using more of that warranty.

The magic word "Carlisle" I had them on a camper several years ago. 4 Years old, but probably less than 1500 miles. My wife's uncle warned us to GET RID OF THEM. I didn't & took a trip out west. Had 3 blowouts. I wouldn't put Carlisle tires on a moped.

Is that having to go a lot after drinking a lot of Sprite?
