Skinner tires on new 2021 boat mate trailers? (Both Moomba/Supra)

[Dank]

Just an observation - but did anyone else notice this?

Curious as to why?

$$$$ related would be my guess. boatmate saw an opportunity to save a buck and took it.

I just noticed this today on the 15” tire option.

I had to do a double take at the dealer.

Looks like they changed to a 205/75/15’s

My 2018 trailer had 225/75/15’s

Moomba went down to 205/75/14. That is what is on my '21 MAX.

205/75/15 D road king is rated at 2150#
225/75/15 D road king is rated at 2540#

Still plenty of tire although they do look thin and chincy

Do we get a refund since we clearly paid for 15"'s ?

:mad:

Man, I can't imagine why - with all this extra weight of the newer boats and knowing that people are adding weight - they would do that..

but whatevs I guess.. ?

That's a total capacity of 8500#'s. Minus the 10% that gets transferred to the hitch. More than enough.

Agreed, the 18’s are 2271# each and 2150# is close enough.

There is a 21 SL on those 205’s and it doesn’t look right.

Also I am not liking the 15” wheel style this year. The rim doesn’t look round, it’s strange.
