WOW, same post as screamandfly... How old are the tires? But, yes they
can
get hot.

I have an 18' Tri-Hull sitting on a single axle trailer. After driving
about 30 miles today, I noticed that both tires were quite hot. The
hubs
and rims were cool, though. Tires have proper pressure, and bearings
were
recently packed with high-temp grease. Am I missing something, or is
this
normal?





Tires aren't that old, but they are bias-ply Carlisles.



You might want to do some Google research on Carlisle trailer tires.
They are not highly regarded among the RV trailer crowd due to a high
incidence of blowouts, even when new.

I've had some blowouts with *fairly new* Carlisle trailer tires myself.

4 new carlisle's and 4 bad tires in 2 years. Had a blowout one time and
looked at the tire on the back axle and it was separated. No more
Carlisle's on my trailer.

Goodyear Marathons have never given me any trouble.
