How to Choose the Best Trailer and Caravan Tyres

Trailers need ST or appropriate LT tyres sized for real loaded mass, not the empty trailer sticker alone. Sun and long storage age tyres faster than mileage suggests.

Load and heat

Underinflated trailer tyres flex and blow out on highways — the classic caravan failure mode.

Speed ratings

Respect the tyre speed limit; Australian highway speeds plus heat build margin quickly.

Replace on age

Five to seven years is a common caravan rule of thumb even with tread remaining.
