Hello,

This is one of the only times I've posted questions here so bare with me as I try to get all the info out.  I just bought a used Brenderup off Craigslist on Monday.  I can say I got the deal of a century and yes, I have title in hand.  The trailer obvioulsy needs some TLC.  It's been sitting for quite some time and I would like to replace the tires (among other things).  I found the DVD that Brenderup sends out and watched a little bit and the DVD is saying they use passenger tires on this trailer!?   I checked the tire size which is 185/65/13.  My husband is challenging me on this... I of course, can't understand why one would use passenger tires on a horse trailer but it is a light Brenderup.  I would love it since I can get a really good price on that size tire!  I don't even know if they make radials in that size. 

CJ

I think the 65 series will be hard to find in the USA. The 70 series should work just fine, it's a little taller and would have a larger carrying capacity. So far as "car tires" on a horse trailer... Remember, It's not a horse trailer, it's a "Brenderup"!!!

If they can be towed with a Volvo/Honda, I can't understand why it would need anymore tire than comes on a VW bug. It's your horse not mine.

thanks for the info!  I located and contacted a local dealer who gave me some suggestions on where to get tires.  I'll check out TireFactory.net too.
