This setup is made to handle tough towing days with confidence. The Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 bias tire carries a Load Range C rating, built with a 6-ply structure that supports up to 745 lbs at 90 psi. It’s highway-rated for 65 mph and meets DOT specifications, so you can roll steady without worrying about overheating or overloading.
Moisture and road grime don’t stand a chance against this wheel’s finish. The 8" x 3-3/4" steel wheel uses an e-coat primer topped with a white powder coat that resists rust and corrosion season after season. It keeps its clean look while maintaining durability where it counts.
The tough nylon cords inside the bias-ply casing sit at 30-45° angles in alternating layers, giving the tire stiff sidewalls that flex evenly across the tread. That construction helps it stay stable and smooth when towing over bumps or rough ground, reducing sway and keeping your load steady.
No need for extra mounting work—this tire arrives already paired with its steel wheel and ready to bolt on. The wheel features a common 4 on 4" bolt pattern, a 2.5" pilot diameter, 0 offset, and uses 1/2"-20 lug bolts. With a section width of 4.7" and an outer diameter of 16.1" when inflated, you know exactly what you’re working with before it ever hits the road.
Kenda backs this tire with a 1-year worry-free guarantee that replaces it at no charge if it’s damaged within the first 12 months. It’s peace of mind that fits right in with the sturdy build and long-term reliability of this tire and wheel combo.
1. Count the lug holes
Look at the wheel hub or the back of the wheel and count how many lug holes there are(also called bolt holes).
Common configurations include: 4-lug, 5-lug, 6-lug and 8 lug
2a. For even lug counts (4-lug, 6-lug, 8-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole directly across to the center of the hole opposite it.
Common configurations: 4 on 4", 6 on 5.5", 8 on 6.5"
2b. For odd lug counts (5-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole to the outer edge of the hole directly across (not center-to-center since there's no directly opposite hole).
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

Ratings & Reviews
I've had these tires on my boat trailer for a year. They were replacement tires that fit exactly and have been just what I needed. I'm very happy with them!
Great customer service. Fit my trailer perfectly.
Good product, decent price. This is the exact same rim and tire that has been on my motorcycle trailer for the last 28 years. I guess this is a pretty standard unit. Perfect.
First time buying trailer parts. So far everything went great. Delivery was fast ordering was easy. was advised by a relative that the age of the tire for a trailer is also important. So I was happy to see that these tires were made very recently this year.2025
Wheels are great. Came inflated properly and we installed them right away, perfect fit. Everything looks great so far.
Good product. etrailer always comes through. The informational videos have assisted me more than once. Keep up the good work Quinn, Mark
The last tires lasted 10,000 miles on my time-out trailer. I pull it with my Harley and the wife keeps it loaded heavy. These are the exact same tires so I expect the same results. Ordering was easy, shipped in a reasonable time. I am pleased.
Looks to be a good sturdy Wheel and Tir e.
Exact fit for my little 1971 trailer. My only complaint was the tires were made in 2022. On the other hand, I don’t think this tire size is very popular.
This site was great to purchase from! I have an older trailer for our small levy boat and wasn't even sure what size to choose. The information on this site was readily available, very detailed, easy to understand, and easy to find. This allowed me to select the wheel and tire combo that was a perfect match to my application giving me the confidence I needed to make my purchase.
I highly recommend this site for your trailer needs!
Great replacement wheels and tires... replaced for a kayak trailer with galvanized hubs for use in Saltwater... quick shipping and great followup!
Fast shipping, fenders are much heavier than expected
Excellent customer service .
AM30040. Top quality. Very satisfied.Load range C, very sturdy. Using this tire and wheel package on a converted boat trailer to utility trailer, used for hauling quads, riding mowers,and motorcycles.
These wheels were a great replacement for my "tag-a-long" trailer that I will pull behind my motorcycle. I dressed them up a little as you can see in the picture by adding little black dots to the rim. From a distance they look like regular 12" or 13" rims with holes in them.
This is the second set of these Kenda 6ply Hi Speed rated trailer tires I have purchased from etrailer.com.
They’re used on my Vintage 1988 Coleman Columbia Camper I pull to road racing permanent tracks throughout the US during the summer.
The first set lasted 5,000 miles. The team there are the best and the prices are amazing.
The tires are perfect for my utility tr ailer!
The wheel & tire were an exact fit of the old wheels. The powder coat will last many years. The wiring harness in the picture was also from Etrailer.com. It simply just plugged it in (I loved that part). That's so much easier than hard wiring a harness to a vehicle.
2 day delivery, awesome! Tires were as advertised and hit the trailer perfectly.
Nice new tires and wheels for my 50 year old boat trailer that has been off the road for 22 years! Thank you for having what I needed in stock.

I havent had these on the road yet. So far I have only moved the trailer around my property. I expect to start road trips this summer. Thanks again for having what I needed.
I'm getting 10,000 miles+ from these and like the fact that the installed rims have the 3 little nubs to accept moon discs on my motorcycle trailer. I pull through some nasty places and this keeps my 'Bearing Buddies' grease from picking up dirt. Got 2 sets wheels last time so am set for a while. On an Alaska 10,000 mile round-trip over bad chip and seal and horrible dirt these held up great. Be sure to inflate properly for your application as they come inflated to 60 lbs. (for boat trailers) and my little camper requires 27 lbs. when loaded. Test run them over your wetted driveway to see that you are running on the entire tread, not only the middle.
These wheels and tires are ideal for highway use for long trips. They say right on tire "High Speed Trailer". With the trailer with no cargo, it weighs 530 lbs. With a 600 to 700 lb load I am at capacity with old tires (590 lbs each). These new tires are Load Range C vs my old tires Load Range B. My new tires are 745 lbs range each. They have two extra plies on the side wall. I also updated the springs with the 750 pound range 3 leaf version I bought also from etrailer. The key to success is to inspect the trailer each time you use it for small starting cracks in trailer frame, loose hardware, low pressure in tires, lights, etc.

The way that trailer tires are rated has changed over the years. Currently, the ply rating given to a tire doesnt necessarily reflect the number of layers or plies used to construct the tire. This tires rating is equal to the rating given to the rating a 6 ply tire under the old rating system.
I have a trailer with 1200 lbs of rebar lengths laying on it. Changed the flat and dry rotted tires with these and all the weight was supported completely. Tires came inflated and looked very good. Customer support was impressive and spot on with helping find the right tire

after a year the tires and rims have been stellar and i would definitely buy anything else i need for trailer projects i have from etrailer again
So far excellent..last tires lasted 15,000 mi. on Mini-Mate motorcycle camper over rough roads. These are going to Alaska and in load range C for gravel and bumps. Wheels have perfect paint and the 3 raised dots in rim recess to hold my new baby moon hubcaps. Popped them on new wheels/tires today and they fit over bearing buddies and seated more firmly and tightly with than I've experienced before with no rattle at all. The tires installed more easily because the center hole was smaller than many old sets of wheels and lug bolts aligned easily and exactly. The Kenda 6-ply have been good in past but was very pleased with last tires(CST) the rubber stayed soft and didn't crack. My spare is also Kenda 6-ply and hasn't shown cracks through 4 sets of tires on the trailer. The new ones look to be of same high quality. They arrived quickly and was able to install between work commitments. After trying to order same on other sites for over a week and get info as to plies/wheel type, etc., I stumbled on eTrailer site and 'bingo' all taken care of and perfectly!

Its now a year and they are at the wear bars! However, they traveled rough chip and seal and dirt and mud roads through Yukon and Alaska round trip from Colorado. They have 1200 miles on them..5000 more than the last sent went and on sandpaper roads to boot! I want another set of these as soon as they can be shipped!
