I agree with Sunset Bob. Look for tiny little cracks in the sidewall of the tire. That is so called, dry rot. If the trailer is more than 5-7 years old the tires are probably junk. Don't mess with it. Trailer tires can be found fairly cheap online. A blowout on a tandem trailer while towing is no fun. I don't recommend trying it....
