Good morning, I need to switch the tires on my trailer from the bias plies it has over to radials. The current size is 205/75d14. What is the best tire in this size for the price? I do a few 300 mile trips each year and the old tires are questionable. My barefoot nautique has the original Correct Craft two axle trailer but I have considered removing the front or rear axle if I can find tires with the correct weight rating to run a single axle. What do you guys do? Thanks

You'd be better off trading someone for a single axle. Your weight distribution will be way off removing one or the other. The posted tire size is appropriate for that setup. I'd get C load range tires on the tandem, Ds on a single.

I forgot to mention it but I'm interested in trading too. I would rather not cut up this trailer.

If you're gonna go from a double axle to a single, you'll need to put an higher load rated single axle under there. Simply removing one existing axle, isn't going to cut it.

And springs, and yada yada but it kinda sounds like he has a plan for that route (which I hope he won't take.)

I wished Hoosier tires made a trailer tire. I thought that would look sick with my 1993 SN. Then it would look good going fast on land too.
