Different Tires for Different Jobs

anchored to the pavement. Car tires are mated to sophisticated suspension, steering and braking sy

Special Trailer (ST) tires are designed for your trailer’s requirements. Their stiff sidewalls help pre
swaying. Their heavy–duty load capacity is critical; ST tires have 10% more load capacity than equiva
tires, and 40% more than passenger car (P) tires. They’re designed for trailer wheels, typically narro
