Question:
If the maximum capacity for 1 tire is 3640lbs is that the total for all 4 or it just for that 1 tire total of 14560lbs

Expert Reply:
Yes, you are correct. If one tire has a maximum weight capacity of 3,640 lbs then a tandem axle trailer with four tires can weigh up to 14,560 lbs. If you can tell me what size tires are on your trailer and the approximate weight then I would be glad to make some recommendations for you as well but if not I have attached our tire selection for you.
Please note that we now carry Goodyear Endurance Trailer Tires which are one of the only trailer tire manufacturers that makes their tires in the U.S.A.
