Trailer tires

    Last month I pulled the Skeeter out of the garage in order to do some rearranging. Went around the block and parked it. Later that day, I was backing it in and noticed one of the tires was half way flat.

    I had aired the tire before pulling out. And I aired it up again after getting it back in the garage and its held tire pressure. I'm thinking the tire is old, too old. I've owned the boat for 15 years and this is the second set of tires, they've got to be 7 to 9 years old.

    I'm guessing the sidewalls collapsed on corners because the tire aged. Anyway, I don't trust them to get me down the street much less to the lake.

    And I'm gonna be selling the boat. I found these tires at WalMart, anyone know much about them ? They are priced right for me. Even if I kept the boat, I don't put enough miles on a trailer to justify paying for a Goodyear tire .
