Features to know about

Built for Long Hauls and Heavy Loads: Load Range D with 81-mph Speed Rating

This setup is made to handle long highway runs with confidence. The Karrier ST175/80R13 radial tire carries up to 1,610 lbs at 65 psi and uses an 8-ply Load Range D construction. It’s matched to a 13" x 5" aluminum wheel rated for 1,660 lbs. The tire’s M speed rating (81 mph) keeps it steady at real highway speeds, and the assembly meets Department of Transportation specifications.

Strong, Cool-Running Radial Design: Double Steel Belts and Full Nylon Plies

When you’re putting on miles, heat is the enemy. The Kenda radial construction uses cords set at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel, reducing rolling resistance and heat buildup so tread life runs longer. The double steel belts and full nylon plies add strength where it counts, keeping the tire stable and predictable whether conditions are wet or dry.

Corrosion-Resistant Wheel that Lasts: Clear-Coated Aluminum Construction

Saltwater, rain, or humidity won’t eat this wheel alive. The aluminum construction is rustproof and clear coated on the front and back for lasting protection. Its “star” spoke pattern gives a clean, sharp look while staying lightweight and maintenance-free.

Mounted, Inflated, and Ready to Use: Simple Bolt-On Setup

No need for extra shop time—this tire comes pre-mounted and aired up to the proper pressure so you can bolt it on and go. The 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, 0 offset, 3.19" pilot diameter, and 1/2"-20 wheel bolts keep fitment straightforward. Torque the lugs to 75–85 ft.-lb and keep pressure at 65 psi for best performance on the road.

Peace of Mind Coverage: Worry-Free Guarantee and Long Warranty

You’re covered if something goes wrong early on. The tire includes a 1-Year Worry-Free Guarantee for replacement if it’s damaged within the first 12 months. Plus, there’s a 5-Year warranty on the tire itself and a lifetime warranty against structural defects on the wheel—solid backing for your investment.

Determining Bolt Pattern

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.

Center to Center
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).

Center to Outside Edge
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

I purchased 5 of these tires to replace old bias ply tires on a tandem axle boat trailer. The trailer carries at 19.5 ft. Stratos center console fishing boat. The tires have performed perfectly over the first year of ownership and appear to be very high quality. The wheel is really nice looking and gave my older trailer a nice face lift. I would recommend these wheels and tires... great combination.



by:

The tires I got are a year old based on the dot stamp and the rims have a thick coating of dust. I contacted etrailer cs and was told it is common for them to sell tires this old. The dust will wipe old but it clearly demonstrates how long they sat around the warehouse Very disappointed

I spoke with our Tire expert. The DOT of a tire being from one year ago should not cause any issue for the lifespan of the tire, which does not begin until the tire is installed and the heat builds up inside the tire. We have all of our tires located in a climate controlled warehouse, so they are protected from all of the elements.



by:

I received my new wheels and tires three days after ordering them. The service was great and my product was perfect. Soon I will have a chance to tow it to the river and test them out. I'll send pictures with the next review.

A year later and they still work great. It sits more than I would like, but time is rare



by:

Very happy with this set up. Top quality



by:

Wheels look good, I needed a tire that would last



by:

Excellent products and exceptional customer service as usual. I highly recommend etrailer to my towing friends.



by:

Great tire & wheel.



by:

The rims and tires were delivered promptly. They look good and appear to be good quality. I'm satisfied.



by:

Nice looking rims. I wish they came with a 185/80 R
13 tire option



by:

These Rims and tires really gave my 16' Lund boat a nice sporty look. Definitely a good upgrade from the original basic white rims.



by:

A good update to D rated tires

Very fast shipping thanks for using UPS. Wheels look great.

Great



by:

Wow! Great website, great service, great product and great price! I buy from internet sources on a regular basis and have never had an experience better than my etrailer.com purchase from start to delivery.

etrailer.com came highly recommended to me from friends and social media groups. Now I join them in spreading the good news.

I purchased a set of tires and wheels for my 2017camper. The Karrier Load range D steel belted radials mounted on aluminum wheels are a great upgrade from the nylon ply load range C tires on steel rims that came with my camper.

I give etrailer.com the highest marks for price, service and delivery.



by:

I wanted to upgrade the wheels on my RV trailer. I did my research on the internet and I found these good-looking wheels that were matching all the dimensional numbers and had an improved load range (upgrade from C to D). As soon as I placed the order, George kept me informed about the status, all the way until they were delivered to my home. The same evening I put them on my SCAMP trailer and they look awesome. Even my wife was impressed once she saw them installed.



by:

The lug recesses are very tight. An impact socket was not usable. I would recommend buying new longer lug nuts to go with these.



by:

Vast improvement over my old 12" wheels.



by:

Purchased two tire and wheel sets to replace a Load Star bias wheel and tire on my Peterson boat trailer prior to a long trip. The wheels appeared well made and good quality, and after riding a in the rain showed very little to no road dirt. Trip included four hours each way on interstate at 70 mph. The tires worked extremely well – less trailer wobble at speed, smoother trailering, improved handling of pot holes and road bumps, less perceived rolling resistance, less road noise, improved MPG (about 1.5 mph from prior trip), and a better trailering experience. The ordering experience from etrailer.com was excellent. The order shipped immediately. I was well informed during each step. The set was delivered neatly in a well packed box and was ahead of schedule.



by:

Great looking product and only slightly more expensive than standard wheels. Fit perfect, service was excellent and got the wheels/tires in just a couple of days. Haven’t technically used them yet, but will be taking our first trip in a few weeks. This was the final piece of my complete camper remodel, it really adds a nice finishing touch. I’ve also ordered the center wheel caps and lug nuts (not in picture). For the price, I think the new wheels visually add a ton of value to my camper by giving it a high-end look for a minimal cost. VERY pleased and plan on ordering a third for a spare.
[Thumbs up]

Great product, totally satisfied. This is my second purchase, first rate company. Buy with confidence.



by:

Perfect, exactly what I ordered. Arrived promptly and in new condition as expected. The tires even had the correct sidewall specified pressure on arrival.

I’ve done business with etailer before and experienced a manufacturer defect with a product and the issue was resolved and a new product sent the same day. Your outstanding customer service is what keeps me coming back. Thanks for being a customer service oriented business!

The only negative to these wheels is now I need to paint my trailer to keep it from looking like crap!



by:

put them on and fit great and ready for a road trip only to find out these are not balanced, drove 30 miles and they put vibrations through out my trailer and truck (Duramax 3500) so i will have to spend extra money to get them balanced before next use



by:

I built my" tool shed" on a Triton aluminum trailer. I wanted doors on three sides. I do a lot of volunteer work at a Bible camp and it involves hauling my tools to the job. The trailer had 12x 4 inch wheels and I wanted something I more substantial to carry the load. I ordered the wheels and tires from etrailer. They came on time and we're exactly what I wanted. I have purchased other items from etrailer, and highly recommend this company



by:

Very heavy duty wheel and nice speed rated tire



by:

I give it 5 stars based of off the ease of working with etrailer and the look of these wheels. I have had to replace tires every time I have made a coast to coast run. This is with the trailer at 80 % of its max load. I am hoping that these load D tires will carry the load. I will update my review when I return.

Outstanding. Ran the same set for the entire year with very little tread wear.



by:

As always I'm highly satisfied with the product I've had two of these aluminum wheels on my boat trail now for year, they work great. I just needed a spare tire.

  • Best Lug Nuts To Go With AM31998 13' Aluminum Wheels
    Hey Bryan, thanks for reaching out. The # AM31998 wheels use a 1/2" - 20 lug nut, preferably a one-piece capped lug nut since it'll protect the wheel studs. Here is what I recommend: - DeeMaxx XL Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - Stainless Steel - 1/2" - Qty 1 # DE46NR What do you usually haul with your Echo trailer?

  • Will Going From Load Range C Tire To Load Range D Cause Any Ride Quality Issues?
    Hello Justin, thanks for reaching out. Going from a load range C tire up to a load range D likely will not change the ride quality in any noticeable way. You would not be increasing the carrying capacity of your trailer, but the higher rated tires will be more robust and durable. If anything you will just be increasing your safety margins, and adding a bit of peace of mind. For a solid Load Range D 175/80-13 tire, I recommend the following: - Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire -...

  • Recommended Load Range D 175/80/R13 Tire
    No, that won't cause any issues whatsoever. Especially since you are sticking with the same 175/80/R13 tire size. Unless you are wanting to change your wheels out as well, you'll want the Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D item # AM10210 over the item # AM31998 you were looking at. This is the exact same Kenda tire that comes with the wheel tire combo.
