These sized tires are very hard to come by now, most of the 15'' are for small cars........Trucks seldom use them, they`ve gone to 16'', 17'' or 18''.

Yeah, even the 16 inch is getting to be less common now.

Jack, there is a moderator that appears to have a wild hair in his butt. I have a good idea who it is and if you make even a little off center post, he does that to you. Let me check into it.

It could have been possibly a problem with your computer Jack. Even if you weren`t registered you would still be able to reply to a post.
Did you add or delete any programs that you know of?
Sometimes my computer acts up and then on a restart it`s fine.

Most likely it was just a hiccup with FTE. It happens sometimes.

Maybe you were being bad too!!

I know it wasnt evil Preppy though haha.

I haven't bought from TireRack as it's in the US...exchange rate, duties, etc. But I find their website excellent for getting an idea of what's available from different brands on their website. Also, the reviews by people that use different brands of tires are great. Gives me a good idea. That's how I selected Michelin LTX M/S (225/70-15) for my Astro.

You could do a search for the size/type you want and get pretty good info.

Thanks for the link Les, I`ll check it out.
I think I`d be happy with heavy ply truck tires as this trailer is seldom used. If I can get reasonably priced trailer tires I`d go with them though the tires would be weather badly checked before any thread wear could occur.
