The Goodride TL STZC is a general use trailer tire that is available in ten sizes.
The TL STZC isn’t marketed with any particular type of trailer in mind; it’s a true general-purpose trailer tire.
Goodride competes well with more expensive trailer tires
Our industry insider said his company has had very good success selling the Goodride TL STZC. He said it’s an extremely popular tire but that they have to stop selling it because import tariffs are putting it in a higher price range than it was meant to compete in. He said that the TL STZC gives a good, smooth ride and the tire has low rolling resistance so it should get better treadwear and gas mileage than some of the competition. The tire is aimed at anyone owning any kind of trailer (car trailer, horse trailer, toy hauler, or boat or Jet Ski trailer) looking for a high-quality trailer tire that saves money all around.

Independent and Consumer Reviews
Reviews written by owners look good. Most admit that they haven’t had the tires very long, but all say that they are improvements over previous tires they’ve owned. Smoother and quieter rides are reported by most buyers.
