0 ozzie Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 you should be able to buy them just like a tire on a vehicle but you can also buy the tire/rim combo at a hardware store.....the thing I found when doing a little research for my boat is that I found the tire/rim combo as cheap if not cheaper than getting only a tire from the tire store......the only thing is I would imagine the tire from the tire shop would have been of better quality as the tires I bought 2 years ago could be replaced now!!

0 tyeeme Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 15" at duluth tire $60.00 installed on your rim. Just had one done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ozzie Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 that is the difference maker right there.....the tire/rim combos that I bought were in the 35-40 dollar range and the tires alone I was finding at 40-60......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 titelines Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I was looking into this too. Called Tires Plus up by the mall and the tires for my trailer were $51.00. To mount it was $10/tire, so $61.00 total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jim Almquist Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Just got a new set for the boat trailer at Duluth Tire. Very fast and got a much better tire then the ones that were on the trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Jeremy airjer W Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Check Menards as well. Down here they have some very competitive trailer tire and tire/rim combos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 propster Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 For $35-40 you probably weren't getting a radial trailer tire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
