Running ST235/80/16's
Yes, I'm towing level. I'm also going to add tire pressure monitoring system to may trailer and truck, any suggestions?

RE: Axle and tire?

Had problem with the Hercules ST's, currently what I have on about 3 years old.
I ran Firestone LT's, I didn't like them; sidewalls seemed softer with more roll.
But didn't have any blowouts on them. Yes, I need to weigh trailer. Do I weigh it hooked up or unhooked? I know there's post on weighing, I'll have to look those up and get up to speed on that before going to scales.

Axle and tire?

I have a 2006 Montana Mountaineer that has GVWR of 12275lbs but has 6lug 5200lb axles. This doesn't seem right to me but I guess they deduct some for pin weight. It came with Load E tires but I've had blowouts and thinking of going up to load F or G. I'm tired of tire issues and damage. I'm fanatic about tire condition and psi, I'm always on top of it. Last blowout tire was less than 2 years old. I've also had a new set all roll the belts and have to be replaced within a year, probably one trip on them, they bulged out in middle tread.
