Question:
I have a single axle Compliment aluminum utility trailer. If I replace the current bias ply tires with radials do I need to change the spare as well? Thanks.

Helpful Expert Reply:
You can keep a bias ply spare tire after you switch to Radial # AM10234 tires on your aluminum utility trailer. Since it is only a spare you will not have to worry about the long term differences in wear between the bias and radial tires.
