Trailer wheels when sharp turning
Hi, is it normal for the wheels/axles to look like this when making sharp turns? I was making a pretty sharp u turn in these pics.
Thanks,

I assume it's expected. It's exactly what my 2017 Eagle 325BHQS looks when turning around in our cul-de-sac.

Funny, I towed trailers since the 1980s. Never noticed wheels doing this until about 2009.
Does freak ya out the first time you notice.

Exactly why you read that Light Truck (LT) tires have "too stiff" a sidewall construction for trailers.

The axles will flex no matter what type tire you use.

I've ran LT tires on my previous trailer with no issues. Also some RV trailer manufacturers install LT tires.

yes, mine do that when popping a u turn in our cul-de-sac, It's when they look like that when going straight, you'll need to worry.

Just do not leave it parked like that. If you need to, pull straight forward and back a few times to let them straighten out
