Lots of guys are going with Michelins.
Tires: ST225/75R15 LRD Goodyear Marathon Radial Special Trailer Tire
Nuts: Stainless Steel Capped Lug Nut -- 1/2 inch, 3/4 Hex
Center Cap: Stainless Steel Center Cap -- 4.25 Open End w/ Plastic Plug
Valve Stem: Valve stem TR600HP high pressure chrome for 0.453 valve hole, snap in style with 100 psi cold inflation pressure 2.48" overall length
Balance: Spin Balance Aluminum Wheel and Tire Assemblies
I have`nt decided what tire to go with my yoko`s are fine but old so they should be replaced before I go on a long trip,which won`t be until next fall at the earliest. I`m a long way away from using the trailer. I`m still trying to get the shell closed up for winter and I have no interior yet. Just an empty shell on a brand new chassis.
Chris just verifying this is everything I need and these will fit my 65 airstream. I plan to order 2 new axles too from Andy.
