12” tires on utility trailer

I’m looking at utility trailers to haul my ATV this winter. The payload is fine, but not sure about 12” tires? Anybody have real world experience with a 5’x8’ trailer with 12” tires?

Few shorter trips a year is fine but if your gonna be pulling long distances and many times a year bigger tires would be better

Smaller fat tires are common on older snowmobile trailers. Make sure to check the max speed of the tire.

I hated those little tires so much on my snowmobile trailer that I lifted the deck on the axle and put bigger tires on. I don’t trust them at all.

Year 27 on a Sled Bed with the small tires… never a problem. Tire rot/dry gets to them eventually, is all I have ran into. (just replaced the plywood this year)
