8" radial trailer tires

[tomephil]

Hi,

I am looking to replace 2 trailer tires on the bike trailer I took to the Hub this year.

they are:

 

 

Michelin MINIX

160/60 R 8 C 65J

Tubeless radials

 

I have called around and no one seems to think they are sold anywhere.

Does anyone have these tires or have any idea where I can get a couple?

 

Thanks,

Tom

You might not find that exact brand or model but the size is very common can be found at:

 

Wally World

Harbor Freight

Tractor supply

JC Whitney

Northern Tool

Cabelas

Bass Pro

Ect...

 

If you wheel wells allow it ya might want to move up to 12"

 

Good Luck

ACTUALLY, I am looking for 8" radial tires.

The tires that are on the trailer are great but slowly wearing out.

It seems like everyone makes Bias but 8" Radials are not made anymore.

I have been looking for a while but so far no luck.

Thanks again,

I will try the above businesses.

 

Take care,

Tom

If they make the tire you are looking for, they should be able to help you.

TOM,

 

Ahhhhh RADIALS... now i see. Actually about 2 years ago I did an internet search for Radial vs Bias and after that education I concluded (to myself and only my opinion) that the extra costs of Radials were not justified in Vehicles under 1,500 lbs like my ATV's, M/C-Trailer and RSV-08 and RSV-08 owners manual recommends Bias Ply Tires too.

 

I know your looking for M/C-Trailer tires.... research Radials vs Bias on the internet and see if you really still need Radials (Personal Choice based on education and belief).

 

I had a retired State Trooper on an ATV Forum swear by 2 things (GoodYear & Radial) [kinda like HD Kool Aid], regardless what independent Radial vs Bias information found or links provided.

 

Good Luck
