I am not really a fan of the 6000 lbs axles and 15” tires. If you have plans to come close to a decent payload I much prefer 7k axles and 16” tires. The tires are much much tougher. Less flats.
I prefer the tilt beds for cars. We have both right now. I have several cars that have trouble getting up the ramps because of low clearance on our dove tail. Loading up my T/A I have to find a ditch or the front spoiler hits. It is a 20ft with 7k axles. My favorite car hauler trailer was a 18 ft with a short dove tail and 5k axles. We have built a couple tilt beds, one was a 16ft the other was a 18ft straight bed. The 18ft trailers both had floor jacks to tilt them. They are pretty slick economical trailers. I have been around a couple 20’ trailers with the 12’ short tilt bend on the back and a 8ft platform on the front. They are great for skid steers, not great for a car. The tilt bed is to short.
