I just bought 4 E rated Maxxis tires. I bought them online from Discount Tire. They had the best price I could find and free shipping.

I was going to purchase MAXXIS from Discount, for my trailer. When I went to pick them up, the date codes said they were already 2 years old... no deal on that..

Check the date codes to be sure they are relatively new (no more the 6 months old).

I always get more capacity than what I could "get by on", axles, tires, etc. It's an extra measure of insurance. It will last longer.
