This is our first trailer of any type. Bought an 04 2619 in Aug. of 03. This being the 5th season of use(probably less than 5000 total miles), I am thinking of getting new tires. When I called the local trailer shop for an appt., I was told none was needed. They would sell me Goodyears mounted on new rims, for approx. $125 each tire., and I could put them on the trailer myself. Not balanced. Or I could go to the local tire shop and have them do everything, probably for a lot more $$. My concern with that is, does a tire shop know how to jack a trailer properly? Also, the trailer shop told me to check the tires for cracking or dry rot, and if none was detected, I could probably get some more use out of them, since they had such low mileage. Not sure what my question is, just a little confused. Thanks for any input.
Enjoy camping.
