Folks I am just about ready to buy my first toy hauler here in a few weeks. I've narrowed it down to a few models and two of the trailers that i'm looking at are in need of tires while the third has had them replaced last year. All three trailers have triple axles so i'll be needing six to eight tires(two spares). Two of the three have 15 inch wheels, while the third has 16 inch. Seems the 16 inch wheel opens up a much larger selection of tires.
I've read a few articles about the best tires but they make no mention of off highway use and one article mentioned their recommended tire didn't fair well off highway.
So for those of you who do have toy haulers and take them off the highway which tire do you use/recommend? Would you recommend buying a Light Truck tire as opposed to dedicated trailer tire? There was one trailer I looked at recently that the gentleman had put LT tires on his trailer and said he didn't flat out with them like the trailer tires it came with.
I'll be doing an elk hunt this year in Colorado and a friend who lives and hunts their has said the roads that lead up to where we will hunt is "maintained" by the county but could be rutted or washboarded out but will be passable by truck and trailer.
I appreciate any advice given.
