I think any or all of your ideas list above are good ones. Even with the complete rebuild of my Plymouth if I was going on a 12,000 mile vacation I would tow the trailer with my Silverado. That is why I dropped the better part of a grand on a set of premium load range E radials yesterday just in case we wanted to take a long trip. I also was spurred on by the thought that one of the old tires was ruined by a large chunk of plastic that cut a non repairable hole in it.

Bill, Tires are soooo important, but we overlook them All the time. Our camper had what looked like 'good condition tires' when we bought it 2+ months ago but started cracking after a few longer trips. Turns out they were Old bias tires that I'm now replacing with ST radials at load range D. In addition to the Most important safety issue, I'm hoping they help with my waggle issue, that girl likes to waggle North of 60! Thanks, Pete

Actually I find that the best thing you can do for your trailer after you purchase it is buy new tires for it. You have no idea how old the existing ones are and looks are very deceiving. The last thing you want with one of these is a flat tire at 60 mph. Good thinking Pete.
