This setup is built for real work. The Kenda 4.80-12 bias tire handles up to 990 lbs at 90 psi, paired with a steel wheel rated for 1,250 lbs. Both meet Department of Transportation specs for confidence at speed and under load. Whether you’re hauling gear locally or heading down the highway, the six-ply construction and 65-mph speed rating keep things steady.
Moisture, salt, and grime don’t stand a chance thanks to the wheel’s corrosion-resistant e-coat primer and white powder-coat finish. The 12" diameter x 4" wide steel wheel resists rust and holds its clean look season after season. It’s a simple, proven design that stays sharp even when exposed to the elements.
No extra shop stop needed. This combo comes mounted and inflated so you can bolt it on and roll. The tire’s heavy spot is matched to the wheel’s light spot at the factory for a balanced ride that tracks straight and smooth on the road.
With nylon cords set at a 30–45° angle in alternating layers, this bias design gives a stiffer sidewall that lets the whole tire flex together. The result is solid stability and a smoother feel over rough or uneven surfaces—exactly what you want when towing through mixed conditions.
Fitment is easy with clear specs. This wheel uses a common 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, a 3.19" pilot diameter, and a 0 offset. The wheel bolt size is 1/2"-20, so it lines up with standard hardware without guesswork.
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"

Hi folks,
I haven't had a chance to drive down the road with these tires yet, but I am very impressed with the speed at which they arrived. Well packaged, good quality, went on with no problems. Unmatched price, for a known, brand name, well reviewed trailer tire. I bought three because the rims on my trailer when I bought it were mismatched and the tires were passenger car tires. No Bueno! I now have brand new tires and rims and a matching spare for my Aliner camper.

Another no brainer review. It's just a 12 inch tire on a small white steel wheel. About the only thing that could go wrong would be for someone to steal it. I suspect that it will live it's useful life bolted to the tongue of my utility trailer and it's primary function will be to give me peace of mind when I'm out on the road. Pretty cheap peace of mind in my opinion...

Still hanging out on my trailer tongue waiting for an opportunity to be useful. Looks the same as last year except for some blood from smashing my finger earlier in the summer.

Just added two more of these for my boat trailer. Got to pick these up at the warehouse in Wentzville, Mo and its a very nice facility. The tires came with 60psi in them and I just hate the thought of putting 90psi in them. Seems crazy high pressure for these little Chinese tires but so does 60 for that matter.
Quick delivery of tires I ordered. 13" trailer tires w/rims were each $20 less than any other local name brand store, received free shipping and saved sales tax of 7%! Easy transaction and good service with updated tracking of the shipment from time order was received to delivery. Good tires and good rims. Thank you etrailer.

Have not really used the boat this year which the trailer tires were for. But they still look great and seemed to pull just fine.
Exactly what I needed great service fast shipping
Finding tires (and wheels) to fit my Carry-All utility trailer proved a challenge until I stumbled upon etrailer.com. They not only carried the correct tire/wheel size I needed, but also in the load range I desired (there were several local and internet-based sources for B rated, but finding C rated tire and wheel combinations was another matter).
I ordered three tire/wheel combinations from etrailer.com, all of which arrived in fine shape nearly a year ago and remain in great shape. Ironically, the price of each tire delivered to my door was within a few dollars (higher or lower) than the lower weight range tires I located in multiple sources elsewhere.
While I do not put many miles on my utility trailer, it is stored outside and the original set of wheels started to rust after several years in the Pacific Northwest. There was also some indication of weather checking in the original tires, prompting me to order replacements for the original two and added a spare in the event of unforeseen need. There is no sign of rust on the wheels nor weather checking on the tires; they still appear new.
When the time comes for another set of replacement tires and/or tire and wheel combinations for my utility trailer, I will definitely turn to etrailer.com for that purchase. Great product, customer service (delivery to door) and reasonable price for new tires and wheels.

After one year, still in the Pacific NW and housed outdoors, the wheels and tires continue to look great - with minimal wear and no sign of weather checking. Again, should I need to replace either one of them, I intend to revisit etrailer.com.
As advertised! Easy ordering, quick/free shipping!
I am very happy with tire & wheel from E Trailer..fair price,fast service and good quality.
Awesome customer service! Lighting fast shipping. Don’t look elsewhere. This is the place!
Exactly what it shows. Some others have complained about the staples in the shipping box puncturing their tire; for me the box was gnarly looking but the wheels and tires were fine. So far so good.
Nice tires and rims. Just a little paint missing by one hole on each wheel.
I balanced both wheels and they didn't require much weight
Just purchased a used landscape trailer that had wheels in poor condition.
I was able to get these new wheels and tires for about the same price it
would have cost me for just new wheels. Great price, fast and friendly
service and prompt delivery. Thank you for a pleasant experience.
Great price, great value, no way you'll find these for this cost locally. Free shipping was nice bonus! Ordered with chrome lugs and chrome center caps. Had to pop the center covers off to make the caps fit. If you measure and the size is the same on the covers, order the next bigger size.
My smallish tilt-bed utility trailer had old dry-rotted tires that would be flat after a week. etrailer fixed that with a new pair of shoes for the old girl... 4.80 - 12 tires on 4 1/2" 5 bolt rims that my 16 year old daughter installed by herself. Next morning we hauled 91 total 60 pound retaining wall blocks in 3 trips with no issues. The wheeled tires riding on new etrailer 5-leaf springs made the job a joy.
Wow...ordered Wednesday morning, received Friday morning. Pleased, and how exciting!
Used info on the etrailer site to pre-build new fenders (not shown) to accommodate new tires & rims - fit is perfect! The 480x12 LRC tires & rims (Kenda #AM30660) replace the too small 480x400-8 LRB's (see pic) that always worried me on day-long trips. The new tires give me a critical bit more ground clearance and are Load C rated to 65mph. They even came with high pressure metal inflation valves, which were an unexpected bonus. Mounted on the smallish-size trailer I use to haul my 12' rowboat, 6HP motor & gear all around our Adirondack Park lakes and Lake Ontario, I know they are just the thing that was needed to overcome highway miles and backwoods rocky trails too. Thanks etrailer and George J for great service, prices and products!
Service was great! Customer service was even better!
tires and wheels came really fast. Was very pleased. Product looked great. Wish boat tires came with more tread but must be some reason.
Such a good feeling to have new load range c tires and wheels.. I should have done this two years earlier. It's never fun heading up fishing and worrying about having tire trouble. Great prices. Now I have a ugly great boat and good looking tires and wheels.
etrailer comes through again! I went to a local retailer for a trailer tire or two and he wanted to charge me about $70 just to put a new tire on an old rim. I went to etrailer.com and found a brand new tire And rim for $xx.xx and it was just what I was looking for. So I bought 2. I refer this company every chance I get to all my friends and family. The tires came two days early, and with free shipping ! I could not be happier. That’s how you do business. Thanks etrailer.com
Initial assessment is that these are good rims and tires for the money. no complaints and no reason to think they won’t perform well, which I can’t really test until the rest of my trailer resto project is complete. Good customer service and prompt delivery.
Tires and wheels arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I put them on a trailer I found on Craigslist This is a homemade boat I just got done with. I took it out on the highway and drove 75mph for about 5 miles. My first impression was great product. The trailer tracked as straight as an arrow. I'll follow up if I have any problems.
The wheel/tire assembly I purchased from etrailer arrived promptly and seems to be excellent quality. It replaced the wheel shown at the left in the picture, that failed on Interstate 95 north of Jacksonville, FL. Your wheel is so good we decided to buy another to avoid a similar experience with our other old wheel and tire in the center in the picture. The second wheel we purchased from you is obviously the one on the right. Thanks for the good products and service.
i haven't driven my trailer yet, tires look solid.
I bought these 12 inch tires and rims to replace the old 8 inch. They were exactly what I needed. They fit perfectly on the hubs and I am sure they will keep the bearings lasting for a long time. I am very pleased with this purchase. Thanks for a great product.

I could not be happier! Has made many short trips to the lake with no problems. In October pulled it 150 miles and again no problems. Thank-you for a great product.
The two 4.80-12 trailer tires came well packaged. They held some air but had to be inflated to 90 psi. The paint job was nice and I observed no chips. Each wheel had a black and red stripe around the outer ring. The tires were labeled LOAD STAR with a load rating of C and two ply sidewalls. I checked and Load Star tires are made by Kenda so that satisfied me. I am looking forward to many trouble free miles with these tires. Free and fast shipping was also appreciated.
