This tire-and-wheel combo is built for dependable performance on long drives. The Kenda Karrier ST175/80R13 radial tire has a 6-ply rating and handles up to 1,360 lbs at 50 psi. It’s paired with a steel wheel rated for 1,660 lbs. The tire carries an M speed rating (81 mph) and meets Department of Transportation specs, so it stays cool and steady mile after mile.
If you’re often near water or in humid conditions, the galvanized finish on this 13" x 4-1/2" steel wheel keeps rust from getting a foothold. The zinc coating protects the metal inside and out, making it a solid choice for long-term use where other wheels might corrode.
The radial design uses cords that run 90° to the direction of travel, so the tire flexes evenly and runs cooler on the road. Double steel belts and full nylon plies strengthen the tread for even wear and stability at higher speeds. That means better traction in both wet and dry conditions and longer tread life under load.
No extra mounting work needed—this combo arrives already mounted and inflated to the proper pressure. With a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, zero offset, and a 3.19" pilot diameter, it’s straightforward to install and quick to get rolling again.
This setup isn’t just built tough—it’s backed by a 5-year tire warranty, a limited 2-year wheel warranty, and a 1-year worry-free guarantee that covers any damage during the first 12 months. That kind of coverage makes it easy to trust when you’re hauling heavy loads or heading out on long runs.
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"

Good looking solid tire. Just put them on my boat trailer. They seem good and came as advertised very quickly with no shipping expense-good deal!
Wheel and tire arrived with what looked like rubber shavings or spaghetti like rubber strings that peeled out of the bead area of the tire. The wheel itself looked like it was spray painted and it appears the paint/galvanizing was blobbed or puddled on the back side of the rim as if it was leaning at an angle and filled up in an area that collected the liquid material. Wheel wasn't balanced which I think is necessary for smooth operation.

Trailer tires are not generally balanced with wheel weights like automobile tires and wheels are balanced. Typically the tires and wheels are mounted so that the high spot on the tire is aligned with the low spot on the wheel. As for the galvanization blobbingpuddling, these wheels are dipped and drip dried because of this, it is common for for the wheels to have bubbles.
Arrived in great shape and on time. Always great customer service!
I was looking for new tires for my 4 place snowmobile trailer as I put new leaf spring axles on it. Pricing was reasonable compared to the other manufacturers out there. Etrailer saved me $75 on 4 sets of tires. Needed the galvanized steel rims as this trailer will see winter and salted roads. Thanks etrailer for the great pricing on your products.

GreaT. The rims are like new the day I bought them. Ill be ordering more in the future for my down ice shacks.
I ordered 4 sets tires and rims for my enclosed sled trailer. I ordered this brand because of the Galvanized rims(originals were rusty and peeling). Also I liked the idea of ordering the tire and rim as a set. I only gave 4 stars because the galvanize on the rims is not even. You would think 2021 we could get a nice finish !!!!

I'm happy with the Radial Tire and Galvanized Wheel package etrailer helped me with. Between the pictures and video of the product on the website, multiple questions submitted and answers received (even though I interfaced with multiple agents on the phone and email, they're all up to speed on customer information), packaging, product quality, price, ease of purchase, and follow up after receiving the delivery(which was prompt), It's been an excellent experience! I will use etrailer again for future purchases and recommend as first choice!
Great Tires and rims. They are used on a 3.5hr trip one way on the highway and have done it several times with no problems. No rusty rims either from the salt water.
Came in pretty quick. As shown
Very pleased! My new wheels & tires arrived within 2 days of me placing my order (2 days earlier then they were supposed to), and they look great and I never had any issues.
Works well
Overall great quality tire, rims are decent. galvanized finish have some blemishes in the rim but nothing that effects the integrity of the tire and rim.
I got the pair of galvanized rim with tires yesterday. Happy with the delivery time, however, it seems the galvanized coating bubbled up in both rims. I spoke to a rep and sent pics and the reply was “cosmetic damage”…. “Damage” is not an encouraging word, especially coming from a company representative describing the condition of a product they sent.
Tires are excellent and rims are way nicer than I anticipated. etrailer has excellent customer service. They fixed an issue with my order, on 4th of July weekend, and had my tires to me in 5 days.
Quick delivery and awesome packaging !
The wheels look nice on my boat trailer. There were some scuffs from shipping as the supports in the box to keep the wheels separated had collapsed, but they're cheap and made to be used so they will work for me.
1996 Parker Tilt 4.5 x 9. Had 12” wheels. Put these 13” ones on. Had to gain some lift by changing leaf spring hangers. From 2 3/8 to 3 3/8. Tire went on but very close to fender, and offset a little. We cut orig fender welds, gained 2” lift on each fender side by way of 2” angle iron. See pics. Not bad for two rural Southern boys in the barn with saws, grinders, and wire feed welder. Easier to gain 4 to 5 inches lift by flipping axle and put leaf on top, But, this is a Tilt trailer. The tilted bed would be steep and tilt beam may run out of pivot space. Packaging & delivery was outstanding.
Had a mismatched set of tires AND wheels on my Jet Ski trailer from previous owners, so I had to get matching! Galvanized wheels not quite as pretty as chromed, but these create a really nice look for the trailer! Very decent price, quick shipping as well. Love 'em...
Our trailer gets seen by a lot of people. I wanted it to look as sharp as possible. The new tires, wheels, etc. did exactly what we wanted.
Great product at a great price and fast shipping.
Blew out left bearings and ruined tire sidewall, yikes! Took this opportunity to move leaf springs from underneath axle to on top gaining 3+ inches then up-size tires and wheels from 12 inch to ST175/R13 inch. tires on Galvanized wheels. Lowest strength component is 2,000 lbs. axle but on original trailer configuration much load would sit fenders down onto tires, less than 1 inch clearance. Now you can see in photos there is about 3 inches clearance with ATV loaded on. Have more ground clearance and trailer is almost bubble level after raising hitch point about 2 inches. I expect galvanized wheels to maintain good looks and functionality for many years to come. Now I gotta paint the trailer, black this time.
Old tires were getting cracks. Didn't want to risk having a blow out on the highway. This fit and works well.
I am sure the tire and wheel will function fine after these go to a tire shop to be balanced. I was a bit upset to unpack these to find that they had no weights on the rim which tells me they are not balanced. One other thing that I am not happy about is the finish on the wheel. Very sharp jagged edges around bolt holes and cutouts. They did not take pride in the finish of the wheel before the galvanizing process either which is very blotchy and far from a smooth. I am half tempted to return the product for these reasons. Will sleep on it and make decision tomorrow. Shipping was fast, and the tires are nice

Delivered fast, good to have a full spare ready to go. etrailer always a pleasure to do business with.
Wheel/Tire arrived well packaged in heavy duty cardboard box. Tire was already pressurized to proper PSI.

These tires have been holding up well! I normally just use the boat locally, but after getting these tires I took the boat to a mountain lake about 3.5 hrs away and had no trouble at all. Money well spent.
