I need to replace the tyres on my caravan.
The details on the existing tyres are "165R13C". This doesn't match anything offered by tyresonthedrive.com, but seems to translate using Google to "165/80R13C" (which does). Is this correct?
The existing tyres are also marked "94/93N". I understand that the numbers indicate load capacity and N is a speed rating, but what loads, and what speed? Where can I find this out?
Are tyres made specifically for caravans/trailers or will a "commercial" tyre suffice (provided that the load and speed ratings are suitable)?
And lastly, given that the mileage on the tyres will not be huge, is there any advantage to choosing a premium or mainstream, as opposed to a 'value' brand?
If it's of any use (or interest) my caravan is a single-axle Avondale Dart, MTPLM 1250kg.
Thanks in anticipation!
