PSA...Check your trailer tires...

[Wheelin98TJ]

So, I just ordered 4 Goodyear Endurance All Season Trailer Tire ST205/75R14 LRD 2040 Lb. 65PSI tires for my trailer. They are AMERICAN made. I checked a few other tires on Amazon and called the suppliers and they admitted that all their trailer tires were made in China. So, to them I said, "NO Thank you".

So the plan is to get the Goodyears mounted on the rims and, that one tire I just bought to replace the one that blew out, to get mounted on the spare tire rim since it's basically brand new, even though it says on it, "Made in China".

I also bought a 3 ton floor jack to be able to raise the axles to get the tires/rims off, as well as 3 Ton jack stands to hold up the axles whilst the tires are being replaced, and when we travel, that floor jack will travel with us in the bed of my Gladiator, as it'll be much easier to work with than the factory scissor jack that Jeep provided with my JT Overland. Hopefully, I won't need it.

I've been driving for over 45 years and had NEVER had a flat tire on any of my vehicles until that fateful trip. Hopefully, won't happen again but, this time at least I'll have the tools ready to deal with it.

I see these tires recommended often. They'll probably be my next set.
