I have to replace a tire on my boat trailer and can’t find a Goodyear Marathon to match. I can’t find the size I have anywhere (st215/75r14). I’d like to keep the same tire as the other three on the trailer but it looks like that ain’t happnin’.

What do you geezers know about MasterTrack trailer tires? Any good?

Got a great deal for my Corvette tires a few years back at www.tirerack.com

Fast shipping and I just had the local tire store mount 'em.

Here's your tire: https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Goodyear&tireModel=Marathon+Radial&partnum=175R4MARV2&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes

You're welcome. ;)

Well dang dude! Where have you been looking? I figured they were hard to locate, so I simply went to the Tire Rack website. Just for the helluvit, I decided to check around locally. Heck, it looks like they're available (or can be ordered) at about every tire store in town (some cheaper than Tire Rack), including Sam's Club! You can even get free shipping through Amazon Prime. How hard did you really look? :crazy

I checked all my local tire places. I went with the MasterTrack.

I only bought one. My preference would’ve been to have five matched tires but this one is going to be my spare for now. I moved my spare to the bad one. I can’t find much that indicates a shit load of difference in brands.

Just messin' with him. He's anal ... just figured it would kill him to have mismatched tires on his trailer. ;)

(I'm sure he only bought one, but I'd be embarrassed to pull a twin-axle with 3X1 tires) :D

Ooops! You busted me bustin' your chops. ;)

Well, youse dufes have fun today. I got suckered in to helping a friend move today. I'll be taking my trailer (with matching tires) over to make a few shuttle runs before the rain hits. S'posed to be there at 8:15, so I'm out'ta here.

Have a great 4th weekend. Lynn's cookin' a couple slabs of ribs w/fresh (white), corn-on-the-cob and misc. fixins, so I plan on coming home with a heck of an appetite worked up!
