Tires And The Sun

[Todd Gross]

I had bought a new three axle trailer in 07. The down turn hit and racing for me stopped. My trailer maybe had 2000 miles on it, if lucky. It sat parked, outside, at a friends place for years. I would pick it up at least once a year to clean and pamper the poor forgotten thing then put it back away.
After about five years of watching it age I decided to sell it. Going over things before delivering I noticed the 3 right side tires were cracked severely. The three lefts looked absolutely flawless. The difference was the right side had constant exposure to the sun. The left side was up against a building, shading it from the sun.
I replaced the three on the right before selling , but advised that the lefts had age.
