Speaking of "aging out"... how old are your tires? If they are the ones that came with the camper, definitely think about replacing them. Yes, they may look great, but they will fail eventually.

I've never rotated the trailer tires, but I keep an eye on how they are wearing.

We just don't put enough miles on it - so I've replaced the tires due to age rather then mileage / wear.

Yeah, the originals are long gone. The current ones are three years old. Thanks for the idea though.

Kidding aside, one of the best things for your trailer tires, is to rotate them down the road, often.
