Always verify your trailer’s chassis plate before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Why Commercial Tyres Matter:
Trailer tyres experience different stresses than car tyres. They carry heavy loads, often sit stationary for extended periods (causing flat spots), and must handle the unique dynamics of being towed. Commercial-rated tyres with 8-ply construction are specifically designed for these conditions, providing better load capacity, resistance to sidewall damage, and longer service life.
Load Capacity:
With a load index of 96N, each tyre can safely carry approximately 710kg. For a twin-axle trailer, this provides substantial load capacity while maintaining safety margins. Always ensure your total trailer load (including the trailer weight) does not exceed the combined capacity of all tyres.
Maintenance Tips:
- Check tyre pressure regularly (trailer tyres require higher pressure than car tyres)
- Inspect for cracks, bulges, or uneven wear before each trip
- Replace tyres every 5–7 years regardless of tread depth (UV and age degradation)
- Store trailer out of direct sunlight when possible
- Rotate tyres periodically for even wear
Installation Note: Professional installation recommended. Ensure wheel bolts are torqued to manufacturer’s specifications (typically 110–120 Nm for M12 bolts). Re-torque after first 50km of use.
