I plan to tow my trailer (with a tinny on it) North in December. The trailer is fitted with the 5.70-8 tyres. These have been fine for the 2km tow to where I normally launch from, but will they manage 200+ km! Bearings are all good. Cheers

there are different bearings in those small hubs,basic wheel barrow type and so called hi-speed bearings.without pulling apart you won't know,my Dad towed something similar all over the north island,just don't overload it .

I would be concerned about both tyres and hub bearings. If you are not sure I would suggest you get both checked for suitability for the job by someone who is qualified to pass judgement. It may save you a lot of grief in the long run
