Question:

The tire size 205/65-10 is a suitable replacement for the old tire size 20.5x8-10. I just wanted to confirm my application with the information you presented. I have a cargo trailer that was given to me by my uncle that has dual axles and the tire size 20.5 x 8–10. I don’t know the weight rating on the axles but it’s a decent size trailer 6x12 so it’s probably on the higher end. It also has trailer brakes but it’s the old style that works off of pressure from the hitch as the towing vehicle slowing down. I want to make sure I get the right tire because occasionally this will be on the highway. I’ve never seen a cargo trailer with tires this small so load rating and speed rating are important. Sorry I don’t have better pictures but the trailer is in another town. Please advise.
