Do The Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tires # TTWPRG235R16 Have All Steel Belt Construction?

Question

Question:

I am looking at your Provider G rated ST235/85R16. Your information about the tire indicates that it has some polyester and some nylon plies. However, according to Taskmasters Provider webpage they should be all steel. Could you clear that up for me? Is the G-rated M-Speed tire the same as they one they list on their website?

You are correct that the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # TTWPRG235R16 does have all steel tread firming belts. This will give it increased strength over tires that use the steel and polyester cords. This is the same load range G tire with the M speed rating that you see on Taskmasters website.

We do have the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads available which you can add to the tires. They are available as a Single Pack # CA66VR for one tire or a 4-Pack # CA83VR with a tandem axle trailer. The beads find the light spot in the tire to balance while you drive increasing the life of the tire.
