Radial versus bias ply on Teardrop trailer?
I recently picked up a lightweight Teardrop trailer that I haven't had the opportunity to weigh yet. The previous owner thinks it's 450 lb, and the title States about 575 lb. I appreciate the fact that that a spare tire and wheel are so easily and inexpensively available at Walmart or Harbor Freight Tools. I will be Towing this with a 89 Toyota Corolla wagon. Wanting to keep as much gas mileage as possible, but wondering if the difference in price and maybe only used several times a year will be worth the effort? I've already custom painted the wheels on it with tires on and do not want to Mar it up at the moment. Ps. I sold off my '55 Chevy and 57 Chevy wagon. The 55 was cammed and sounded really nice but the gas mileage was disgusting. The 57 wagon had the turbo Hydro 350 in it and so it was rather wasteful. The 70 Cuda project is also gone,as well as the Volvo 242 toying with the idea of a Saab Sonett 3 I'm obviously trying to turn a corner for Fleet mileage going up big time! Anybody else making some hard changes these days?
