Not Ranked
The secret to trailer tire survival is not "overloading" the tires.
Overloading literally as in weight
Or
Under-pressure
To the tire, either is the same...builds up heat and "bingo" tire shot.
Keep the pressures up to the limit. I like 10% over pressure, but that's just me. Like the tires cool. I feel them when gassing up to make sure non slow leak has developed which leads to under-pressure and heat build up.
