did the tires scallop?or wear smoothly?i think the boat is setting too far back on the trailer...i added trim tabs on a boat and moved the boat back so the tabs would not come up on the trailer runners and the tires scalloped badly in 500 miles...
hopefully it's OK to bump old thread.The tongue weight should be no more than 10% of the total weight of the boat and trailer combined. Most dealers recommend 6% to 8%.
Also, have a tire shop check axel alignment. If you look at how the axels are attached to the trailer frame, you can see how easy it is for them to get out of alignment.

my question if the rear axle is 1/4" shorther than the front (but still rolls balanced) will cause abnormal tire wear?TB
