Cheng Shin trailer tires?

[Anonymous]

Has anybody run these? I just bought a set of 3 and was wondering how fast I can go with them too. They are 5.3x12. I'm hoping that if I swap the 3 tires around I'll be able to get the same distance out of them as a pair of Carlisle trailer tires.

Cheers, Steve

you have three wheels?

Kind of, one is a spare. I'll be swapping the 3 tires around as I see fit so that I can wear them all out at the same time. I'd like to get some use out of the spare before it rots away so this is probably the best way.

ps Princess auto is selling the CS tires for 25$ and the wheels are another 25, that's a lot less than buying pre-mounted Carlisles from them at 80$.

tires

I used to sell them for motorcycles out of my salvage yard, on the bikes they worked good not a lot of mileage out of them, and the side walls are paper thin, but then again on a trailer they may die of rot first
