Question:

I have a 2016 Coleman by Dutchmen Lantern Series M-262BH that is running Ridgeway Sport ST205/75R15 6PR tires. I had a blowout this weekend, and after checking my tires I need to replace all of them date code is 4414. What do you recommend for a replacement tire? Trailer specs call for a ST205/75R15 Class C tire. Also what are the advantages to buying the tires premounted on the rim vs buying the tire and having a local shop mount it?

Expert Reply:

The best tire I can recommend for your tire size of ST205/75R15 is the Taskmaster Provider part # T20515D. It has a Load Range of D and a speed rating of 81 mph which means you won't overload or exceed the speed rating of the tire which is normally what causes tire failure.

The advantage to buying them pre-mounted is you don't have to pay someone to mount them locally. However, it shouldn't cost much to have someone mount them and it should be easy to find a local shop to do it.
