Challenger 180 trailer tires

[sstorti]

My trailer came with 185/80/13 and I can't find them anywhere around me. If they fit would it be ok to use 175/85/13 or 205/75/14s? The weight rating on both of them are the same or greater. Also what would you recommend doing?


Thanks

I'm surprised you can't find the 185s.

If you do a decent amount of trailering, you may want to move up to radials. The 175s should work if you decide to stick with bias ply. We've had them on our trailer since we bought the boat last August and haven't had any issues (aside from a wear issue that we think we have fixed).

Would you recommend trying to see if the 205s work?
