Sebastian asked:

I have a trailer with 3 good tires and need one more. Can I just buy buying prescription drugs online without a prescription one and put it on there or do I need to have the tires in pairs matched up? And if they need to be matched up, does it matter if the tires are matched on each axle or should they be matched up on one side. This is an 18ft bumper pull car hauler tandem axle trailer with the typical suspension with 3500 axles.

Three of the tires are new and the one is nearly bald. The forward axle which was bent caused the one tire to wear out quickly. There is a new axle on there now. I bought the trailer like this.

Reply:

Because they aren't drive axes, it doesn't make any difference. Running different tread patterns is only a problem if they're drive tyres. Say running opposing highway tyres and mud tyres together)

On a trailer, you could run 14" rims on one side and 16" on the other and it wouldn't hurt. Not that I'd recommend it.

Cheers
