Question:

What metal fenders do you recommend for 20.5x8x10 tires? Seems like most 10inch fenders would be too narrow.

The Jeep-style trailer fender you referenced, Redline Single Axle Steel Trailer Fender # J10821,
does fit 10-inch wheels and is a weld-on application. Your tire size, 20.5 x 8 - 10, has a modern metric size equivalent of 205/65-10 and this size fits a 6-inch-wide rim. Please refer to the linked article on tire sizes for additional information. This width tire/wheel will easily fit a 10-inch-wide fender.

I have also included a link to our main page for trailer fenders. Filters in the left-hand margin will allow you to narrow the results based on your preferred material, steel or aluminum, mounting type, etc.
