Replacement Trailer Tires for a 3,880 Pound Travel Trailer with Under Rated Tires Installed
Just about every tire manufacturer has moved operations over seas so finding a trailer tire made in the USA would be very difficult. For tire size 205/75-14 you can use # AM10234. This is a radial load range C tire rated for 1,760 pounds at 50 psi. On a single axle, the capacity would be 3,520 pounds. This is 360 pounds lower than the gross trailer weight you stated. In order to get to a high enough capacity you would have to change to a 15 inch tire in a load range D, # AM10245. That means

Why Do the Tires on a Dual Axle Trailer Wear Differently
If the rear axle trailer tires are supporting more of the weight of the trailer then they would wear out faster. There are couple of adjustments that could be made to try to even out the load on the trailer. The first would be to more evenly distribute the weight on the trailer, and secondly make sure that the trailer is being towed in a level position. The first adjustment that you could make would be to redistribute the weight on your trailer. Ideally you would want to move some of the wei

Upgrading 4.80-12 Trailer Tires On a Haulmaster Trailer
Take a look at Kenda K353 tire # AM10062. This is a 4.80-12 trailer tire, load range C, rated for 990 pounds at 90 psi. This tire has a 6 ply rating. The tires we carry, unless otherwise stated on the tire itself, are rated for 65 miles per hour. One important tid bit of information that you should find helpful is that trailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum psi as indicated on the tire, in this case 90 psi. This is because trailer tires are made with a thicker sidewall and whe

Trailer Tire Recommendation to Replace a 670-15 Tire from a Cattle Trailer
From the research I did I was able to determine that the 670-15 tire size you have is the same as a 205/75-15. For a Load Range D tire of that size I would recommend the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10245. I attached an FAQ article on trailer tires for you to check out also.

Changing ST185/80-13 Tire Size on Shorelander Boat Trailer
Because the size of both tires is so similar, you can certainly use the # AM31952 as a replacement. An ST185/80-13 tire will typically be slightly larger in diameter and width than an ST175/80-13 tire, but only by around 1/4 inch. Although the # AM31952 has a higher load rating than your existing tires, this higher rating will not provide any additional capacity over and above the capacity of your axle. For instance, lets say that your boat trailer uses a 2,000 lb axle. Two of the # AM319

Should Factory Bias-Ply Tires Be Replaced With Kenda # KR25 Radial Tires
Yes, replacing your bias ply tires for Kenda KR25 # AM31208HWTB is a good move with regard to the safety of your cargo trailer and you on your motorcycle. As long as your radial tires are properly inflated, the radial tires will have improved traction and better tread wear which in turn will give you a more stable ride. The main difference between bias ply and radial tires is the construction of the tire and the usage applications. Bias ply tires have stiffer sidewalls and might be used for m

What is the Speed Rating for a Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire
The tires we carry, like # AM10210, are rated for 65 miles per hour. Occasionally if you find yourself going 70 miles per hour it will not be much of a problem as long as you bring the speed back down within the limits of the tires. The faster you go the more heat is generated. Heat is the number one cause of trailer tire failures. Trailer tires are constructed with a thicker sidewall and can thus generate more heat than a passenger car tire. This is troublesome when a trailer tire is under i

For that tire size you will need a 16 inch rim with a width range of 6-7-1/2 inches. It sounds like you have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern (check the FAQ article to confirm this) so I would recommend you get a Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel # AM20758.

Is the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire a Dependable Trailer Tire
Most tires, whether they are passenger vehicle tires or trailer tires, will stand up to the test of time provided they are properly maintained. The tires we carry are the same. Trailer tires must be inflated to the maximum psi as indicated on the tire sidewall. This is because trailer tires are constructed with a thicker sidewall. Because of the thicker sidewall they can generate more heat and if under inflated they will generate excess heat and cause the tire to fail prematurely. This issue is

Should Trailer Axle be Changed from a Normal Axle to a Torsion Axle on Home Made Tear Drop Trailer
You can go to a torsion axle and different tires and wheels if you so choose. You have to consider what you are trying to accomplish by doing so to determine if it is worth the expense or not. Normally I would say you could change to a different tire size if there is clearance to do so but Harbor Freight trailers tend to have odd bearings and if changing the hubs is required to go to a larger size tire and wheel you may not be able to without changing the axle any way.

Trailer Tire for a 2005 Aliner Classic Trailer with 165/80-16 Tires
A tire size of 165/80-13 is not a common trailer tire size. Check to see if it is actually a 175/80-13 or 185/80-13 because those are common sizes. If you do have a 165/80-13 tire then it may actually be a passenger vehicle tire or light truck tire. The closest match is going to be a 175/80-13. It will be about 3/4 of an inch taller and 0.3 inches wider than a 165/80-13. For a 175/80-13 if you need a bias ply tire use # AM1ST77. For a radial use # AM10210. You want to make sure you keep t

Replacing steel wheels @ 50psi with aluminum @ 65psi
Because the clearance between your two tires is pretty snug already, I would recommend you stay with a 14 inch wheel. Given that your distance between the front and rear tires is 2.25 inches, going with a 15 inch wheel will change that distance to 1.25 inches which is closer than I would be comfortable with. When driving over uneven pavement or while making sharp turns, the suspension allows the axles to move around to a certain degree. If the tires were any closer together than they are now, th

Will a Higher Capacity Trailer Tire Last Longer on a 4x8 Trailer Harbor Freight Trailer
The first problem is that you are running lower air pressure than what the tire is rated for. Trailer tires should ALWAYS be inflated to the maximum air pressure as indicated on the tire. The reason is that trailer tires are constructed with a thicker sidewall than passenger vehicle tires. Because of the thicker sidewall, if the tires are under-inflated there will be more heat build up and than can cause the tires to fail and as you are seeing wear out quickly.

First, we carry two different 4 hole bolt patterns for a 13 inch wheel. The bolt patterns are 4 on 4 inches and 4 on 9.44.

Load range D has a capacity of 1,220 lbs at 65 psi, whereas load range E has a capacity of 1,520 lbs at 80 psi. Basically the only difference between the two is the weight capacity. With trailer tires you always want to have them inflated to their maximum that way you get the best handling, braking and wear characteristics. You should note that if you increase the load capacity of your tires it will not necessarily increase the overall capacity of your setup. You must always go with the lowes

Radial or Bias Ply Wheel and Tire Combo for Boat Trailer
The only instance where we might conceivably recommend a bias ply tire over a radial tire would be for farm or agricultural use where the tire would primarily be used on non-paved surfaces. This is due to the fact that the thicker sidewalls used on bias-ply tires would offer more stability. For a boat trailer, or any other trailer used on pavement a radial tire is preferable. A radial tire will have a more flexible sidewall, which provides better tread contact with the pavement. Radial tires

Will Changing to a Wider and Taller Trailer Tire Help Reduce Road Shock on a Bumpy Road
Actually the more surface area of the tire that touches the road, the more you will feel every bump on the ground. An ST175 or 185/80-13 tire is wider than a 4.80 x 12 so it would be worse as far as a bumpy ride goes. What I recommend adding is some suspension enhancement, see link. Adding some suspension enhancement will absorb road shock and pro-long the life of the suspension. It will definitely help with those bumpy gravel and dirt roads.

Trailer Tires on Pontoon Boat Trailer are Wearing On the Inside
If your boat trailer tires are wearing on the inside then that indicates that they are bowing out at the bottoms. This usually means they are overloaded or it could also mean that the axle has been flipped. A trailer axle will have a natural bow in it that is curved upward in the middle when not under load. When a load is placed on it, the axle will straighten out. If the the load is too heavy the axle will bow downward in the middle and push the bottoms of the tires out leading to excessive

Because of the construction of a radial tire, the tire has more flex and will allow for more ground contact. That will improve traction and better tread wear.

How to Choose the Correct Tires and Wheels for a Motorcycle Trailer
As a general rule when choosing tires for your trailer, you should choose tires that have a weight capacity that is greater than or equal to the weight capacity of the axle. If you have a 2,000 lb axle, then you will want to choose two tires that each have a weight capacity of 1,000 lbs or more.

However, even though the tires are rated for this much, you are still limited to the axle capacity of the trailer. I have included a link to our tire FAQ article for you.

Availability of a 5.30-12 Trailer Tire for an Older Pop-up Camper
We do have a 5.30-12 trailer tire on a steel wheel with the 4 on 4 bolt pattern. However, it is a bias trailer tire and not a radial tire. A bias trailer tire is going to perform well for you. It is # AM30780. This tire has a weight capacity of 1,045 pounds at 80 psi. Trailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum psi rating as indicated on the tire. In this case the tire should be inflated to 90 psi. This will extend the life of the tire and reduce heat build up which is the main cau

What is the Best Way to Determine the Correct Bearings on a Snowmobile Trailer
The definitive way to determine the bearings needed for any trailer is to remove the hub and inspect the bearings. The bearing numbers will be stamped into the metal of the bearings. If you have a round axle and can determine the diameter of it, along with the wheel size, bolt pattern, and any other information you can provide, I may be able to determine what the correct bearings are. I have included a link to a video that might help if you decide to take the hub off.

Can Tacker Boat Trailer Tires, 175/80-13 be Replaced with 185/80-13 Tires
The reason that you are having blow outs is probably not the tire size, it is the type of tire. Passenger vehicle tires should not be used on trailers because they are not designed to handle that type of load. Trailer tires are designed with a thicker side wall to handle more vertical load. When properly inflated and used within their capabilities the tires will not blow out. Trailer tires need to be inflated to the maximum psi indicated on the tire.

How To Change To Smaller Wheel and Tires on Utility Trailer With 6-Lug 15 Inch Wheels

You will need to change out the hubs on the axle to a bolt pattern like the 5 on 4-1/2 inch size to be able to use a smaller wheel and tire.

What Size Trailer Rim Should be Used for a 205/75-15 Trailer Tire
For a trailer tire, the narrowest option rim for any given tire is going to be the best option. For a 205/75-15, the best option would be a 5 inch rim. The reason that narrower is better is because it provides more support for the tire. Since trailer tires handle more vertical load, the narrow wheel that offers more support is ideal. A wider rim can still be used but you will not get as much support and you may run into interference issues even though the width difference overall with the

How to Determine if a Trailer Wheel is Centered on the Hub or Centered Using Lug Nuts
Having a larger pilot diameter (center hole) on a trailer wheel is only an issue if the wheels are centered onto the axle using the hub (a hub centric wheel).
