NHTSA Recall ID Number : 17T014

Synopsis : Triangle Tire USA (Triangle) is recalling certain Triangle TR643 tires, size ST225/75R15. Due to a manufacturing process error, the tires may have a hole where the sidewall and the tread meet, resulting in an air leak. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 109, "New Pneumatic and Certain Specialty Tires." If the tire does not stay inflated, it can increase the risk of a crash. Triangle will notify owners, and dealers will replace the tires, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin September 15, 2017. Owners may contact Triangle customer service at 1-615-610-5050.

Most small trailer tires are "B" rated highway tires.
The sidewalls are quite thin and for us off-roaders, having busted many a side wall myself on pinching a rock, I recommend you employ at least a "C" rated tire.
