GBC Transmaster Radial Trailer Tire





Tires:

I never would have thought that replacing my bias tires with radials on my trailer would do anything more than extend the life of the tire.
I was wrong.

Replacing the cheap bias tires with the high quality radials was the best thing I have done for this heavy 2 spot ATV trailer. The trailer tracks so much better than it used to. I didn't really notice how bad my old tires performed until I had the radials put on. Before, the trailer swayed all over the place and now even at speed upwards of 90MPH, the trailer tracks great.

I have towed this trailer to Southern Utah 3 times (approx. 300 miles each way) and Southern California's Glamis Dunes (650 miles each way) among other local spots, totaling well over 3000 miles. The tread still looks brand new so far.

I am extremely happy with the performance Of the TransMaster radial tires so far. I expect that these tires will far outlast the old bias tires.

For safety's sake, please replace your cheap bias tires with these new radials from GBC; you won't be disappointed.


Wheels:

The new clean looking wheels took this trailer from sad looking to a classy piece of equipment that I am now proud to pull behind my big diesel truck.

I used to be embarrassed to pull this trailer behind my truck because it didn't fit my style with the rusty old white wheels.
In this case, changing the wheels was more for looks than performance, but at the rate my old wheels were rusting, I don't think I would have gotten another year out of them.

If you want your trailer to look like it belongs behind your expensive rig or if your old wheels are on the verge of failing, I recommend that you look at the variety of wheels that GBC has to offer.


Check back for a long term update.
