![]() ![]() Bias ply tires typically have a stiffer sidewall than radial tires which helps increase stability and decrease sway when your trailer is loaded. Another key feature of radial tires is they don’t tend to get flat spots on the tires when parked for an extended length of time.īias ply tires are built with inner steel belts or (plies) running at a 30-45 degree angle from the tread. Overall, they tend to last longer than bias ply tires and because of their low rolling resistance, they dissipate heat more efficiently for a smoother ride and better fuel economy. Radial tires are made with inner steel belts running at a 90-degree angle from the tread. There are two types of ST tires – radial and bias ply tires. Specialty Tires or ST tires are built especially for trailers with a stiffer sidewall to carry heavy loads. To help in selecting the best tires for your trailer, we’ll explain what an ST tire is, how to find your tire size, and go over the difference between Radial and Bias Ply tires in this blog. When choosing trailer tires you’ll need to take into consideration the size and type of the trailer you have as well as the weight of the load you carry.
