How to Select the Right Tires for Fleetwood Wilderness Trailer

Updated 08/06/2018 | Published 08/04/2018

Question:

I am wondering what type of tire I need to replace the old ones on my 1990 Wilderness Yukon by Fleetwood? I just bought it used and it has all different tires which explaines the blowout. Any help would be awesome.

The right tire for your 1990 Fleetwood Wilderness will depend on what the diameter and width of your wheels are as well as the GVWR of the trailer.

You will need tires that fit in your wheel well and the width of your rim while also having a capacity at or above your Fleetwood's GVWR.

For example, the Karrier # AM10256 fits 15" x 6", 15" x 6-1/2", and 15" x 7" rims, is 28.4" in diameter, 8.9" wide and has a maximum capacity of 2.540 lbs at 65 psi. Additionally, to prevent blowouts always remember to keep your tire inflated to the max psi on the sidewall, which for this tire is 65.

If you let me know what size your wheels are, as well as what your trailer's GVWR is I'd be happy to make a specific recommendation for you.
