    Trailer Tire Wear Question

    I have noticed my trailer tires wearing funny. The outside of the tire is just about slick but I still have good tread on the rest of the tire. What causes this? I have a single axle trailer and the tires are Marathons. I normally run 40psi in them. Any suggestions?

    You need to run 50 PSI in those tires. Look on the side wall of the tire and it will read 50 PSI cold.
