Odd wear on tires
 
Thanks to all w/suggestions. Bearings not sloppy,
Frame/axle not bent.

Tires were 8 years old, and loosing 4-5psi per week. Been
sitting and pressure was 21-22.

New tires, pressure @ 62 seems to have solved it.

thanks





One of the folding 4' x8' kit trailers. It had several
trips from S. Calif to Salt Lake City loaded to the gills
without this kind of wear.

Recently, been towing a honda CBR1000, about 475lbs. 3-4
thousand miles. Major wear on tires. ONLY change was
installation of oil filled hubs.

Is that 62 Olde Englishe pounds per Olde Engishe inch, pressurewise?

If so, seems about 30 PSIG on the high side.

Nope, that's actually 60psi, as specified on the sidewalls
Tyres(bg!) are pretty floppy until pressurized.
