[QUOTE="ClinchValley86, post: 1807245, member: 38595"] Bought a gooseneck trailer last year. My Dad has them put 14 ply tires on it in an attempt to combat my tendency to overload. 😆 Discovered last week that the tires are rubbing the wood deck when carrying a good load. Then realized that they'd put larger tires on the trailer than it needs. They're 235/85's. Unloaded I've maybe got 2 inches between tires and wood. Can't believe I have yet to smell it or see smoke. Would I be better to get some smaller tires or is it possible to add a leaf to the spring pack on the trailer to lift it up a bit? I'm hoping the dealer will fix the issue, as he shouldn't have put the tires on there if they were going to rub. But not gonna hold my breath as it's been 11 months. I should have caught it before now. That's my mistake. [/QUOTE]
