Before buying trailer position tires: free-rolling semi-trailer tires

Trailer position tires are commercial truck tires bought for the free-rolling axles of semi-trailers such as dry vans, reefers, flatbeds and tankers. Trailer position tires use shallow rib treads, commonly 12/32 to 16/32 in. new, with low-rolling-resistance compounds, because trailer tires carry load without steering or driving.

Trailer position tires or ST trailer tires

Trailer position tires are the purchase for semi-trailers pulled by Class 7 and Class 8 tractors. Owners of travel trailers, boat trailers and utility trailers buy ST trailer tires, a different size system and construction.

Trailer position tire sizes to check when ordering

Trailer position tires are ordered in 11R22.5, 295/75R22.5 and 11R24.5, in low-profile sizes such as 255/70R22.5 for low-deck and car-hauler trailers, and in wide-base sizes such as 445/50R22.5 that replace a dual pair on each wheel end.

Choosing scrub-resistant trailer tires for regional routes

Scrub-resistant trailer tires are the purchase for regional and city trailers with spread axles or frequent tight turns, which drag the tires sideways. Scrub-resistant trailer tires use stiff shoulder ribs that hold up under that sideways drag; linehaul trailers on straight interstate miles get more from low-rolling-resistance trailer tires.

Buying SmartWay-verified trailer position tires

SmartWay-verified trailer position tires are the purchase for box-type trailers longer than 50 feet that operate in California, where the Tractor-Trailer Greenhouse Gas regulation requires low-rolling-resistance tires on the trailer and on the tractor that pulls it.

Load range to choose when buying trailer tires

Trailers that run at maximum legal weight, such as tankers and loaded reefers, are bought with load range H trailer position tires. Lighter dry vans and flatbeds commonly run load range G, so the trailer's heaviest regular load decides the load range on the order.

Choosing new or retread tires for trailer axles

Trailer axles are the most common position for retread tires, because trailer tires do not steer or drive. Fleets buying for trailers compare new trailer position tires with retreads on the same size to set the lowest cost per mile.
