Carlisle CSL 16 Trailer Tire
Built for hardworking trailers, the Carlisle CSL 16 is a radial ST tire that carries heavy loads with confidence. Its sturdy casing, heat tolerant rubber, and stable ribbed tread help control sway and promote even wear on long hauls. Use it on campers, cargo trailers, and equipment haulers where stability and durability at highway speeds matter. Choose the right size and load range for your axle ratings, mount on approved trailer rims, and enjoy predictable, dependable towing.
Features and Benefits
The Carlisle CSL 16 prioritizes consistent control under load. A reinforced casing limits deformation so the trailer tracks straight and resists sway. Heat resistant compounds help manage temperature during summer runs, and the rib focused tread keeps contact even to extend tread life. Strong shoulders add stability in crosswinds and lane changes, and steel belted radial construction supports durability and modern load ranges for heavier campers and cargo.
Sizes, Load Ranges, and Key Specs
The CSL 16 comes in popular ST sizes like ST225/75R15, ST235/80R16, and ST235/85R16. Depending on size, multiple load ranges are available, often described as 10 ply, 12 ply, or 14 ply, though modern tires use load range letters instead of actual plies. Check your trailer certification label for the required size, load index, and maximum cold pressure, and be sure your wheels are rated for the same psi. When unsure, choose a load range that meets or exceeds your GAWR and inflate to the sidewall's stated cold psi.
Load Range Explained: E, F, and G
Many shoppers still use 10 ply or 14 ply language, but modern tires list load ranges such as E, F, or G. Load range defines the tire's maximum cold pressure and carrying capacity, not the number of plies inside. As a rule of thumb, 10 ply often aligns with Load Range E and 14 ply with Load Range G. Always confirm the exact load index, max load, and cold psi on the sidewall, then compare to your trailer placard and axle ratings.
On‑Road Towing Performance
When matched to the proper load range and inflated to the correct cold psi, the CSL 16 delivers steady tracking and dependable braking on the highway. The casing manages heat during long summer drives, and the continuous rib pattern promotes even contact for a composed feel in lane changes. Expect reduced trailer sway and strong straight line stability when loads stay within GAWR. Balance the assemblies, check pressure before travel, and inspect tread and sidewalls to maintain performance.

Pricing for the Carlisle CSL 16 varies by size and load range, with higher capacity 16 inch fitments typically costing more.

Customer Reviews and Owner Feedback
Owners who maintain proper inflation and stay within axle ratings often report stable towing, predictable tracking, and even wear from the CSL 16. Many highlight how well it handles heat on long summer trips and how composed it feels at highway speeds. As with any ST tire, results depend on correct load range selection, balance, and routine inspections. Check cold psi before each trip, avoid overload, and re-torque lugs after installation to support long service life.
CSL 16 vs Goodyear Endurance
Both the Carlisle CSL 16 and Goodyear Endurance are radial ST trailer tires built for highway towing. Start by confirming the size and load range you need, the sidewall speed symbol, and your wheel pressure rating. Then compare load index, max cold psi, and current price in your exact size. Either can serve well when matched to the application and maintained correctly.
