Tires: changing tire size, passenger car tire, tire failure
QuestionI have a trailer with 205/75D/15 tires on it and I also have a single tire from a friend which is 215/70/15. Could I use this on my trailer without any problems.
AnswerTim,
Does the trailer tire have the letters"ST" in front of or behind the numbers? If so, then you can not use a passenger car tire on the trailer.
Even if the letters are not there, what you are proposing is going down in load carrying capacity, which increases the risk of a load related tire failure.
Basically, the answer is, No.
