Keeping track of trailer (tire) mileage

rallye bob · 07-01-2015, 08:09 AM

Anyone using a "Hubodometer" type device on their trailer to keep track of mileage for maintenance? I have looked but can not find what I am looking for for 15" wheels. I would like to hear from anyone that has experience with one of these devices, or a good alternative... TIA..

I replace them every 3-4 years even if they still have decent tread. Maxxis says they are good for 5 years. Even using them at 75 mph at 80% of rated load, no failures for many years using that replacement strategy.
