Load Range D Trailer Wheel and Tire Similar to Size 255/75-15  

Published 12/22/2022

Question:

I have 18” custom rims on my boat trailer w/ 255/45r18 tires and wondering why none of the manufacturers offer ST classified range D or E tires for these new trailers. I pull a boat a lot of miles and would appreciate any help solving this issue

Expert Reply:

18 inch trailer tires aren't really a standard option so there aren't any ST rated tires for that size wheel. I'd be interested to know if the wheels and tires you have now are actually rated for trailer use or if they were designed for a vehicle instead which isn't recommended. The diameter of your current tire size is 27 inch which means the closest trailer tire and wheel setup that's available would be the size 205/75-15 which in a Load Range D we have the part # TA87VR which is on a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern.

For something a little nicer looking that has same bolt pattern and is Load Range D we have the Provider ST225/75/15 part # A225R6BMMFL which has an overall diameter of 28.3 inches.
