• Parts to Convert 5-Spoke Utility Hub to Modern Style Hub on 10K Trailer
  Thank you for reaching out! It looks like your Dexter Axle uses the 5 Spoke Utility Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-174-5UC3 so to replace that and your brakes you need the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K as well as the 12" Self-Adjusting Electric Brakes # TRU96FR. These will be exact fits for your system but the hub and drum kit comes with a slightly larger grease seal so you need the Replacement Grease Seal Set # RG06-090 for each axle on your trailer. Your older...

• Is There a Better Tire/Wheel Kit Than the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel
  Hey Mark, thanks for reaching out! The Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel # AM32680 you've picked out is a really solid choice - the only way I would recommend something else is if you're wanting a different style like the kit # AM32684 or kit # KE56JR which is the same tire just on different aluminum wheels instead. If you aren't concerned with a specific style then I say to stick with the white wheel as it's an industry standard.

• Do You Have A White Rim And Tire For My Existing 225/75/15?
  Hey Ed, We do have a white rim option with a tire for your trailer. I recommend the Kenda # AM32680, a white rim with tire that is load range E like your original tires giving it a 2,830lb capacity at 80psi. It does have a 6 x 5-1/2 bolt pattern. I recommend double checking your bolt pattern, what you mentioned is not a standard or common lug pattern on trailers. I would bet you have a 6 x 5-1/2 since that is by far the most common for that tire size. I attached an article about measuring...

• Choosing Bigger Tires to Increase Trailer Ground Clearance
  It depends on how much clearance you currently have around your wheels. Ideally, you should have 3 inches minimum clearance between your fender and your wheels and an inch minimum between your sidewall and trailer frame/wall. As your wheel size increases, your clearance decreases so please measure with that in mind. You current tires are 225/75/R15 similar to # AM32680. As you can see, this tire has an outside diameter of 28.4". Going up two inches would bring you to a wheel and tire like...

• Will Switching From a Drop Axle to a Straight Axle Increase Tire Clearance
  The 175/80-13 tire that you have now is 24" diameter x 6.9" wide and the new 225/75-15 tire is 28.3" diameter x 8.9" wide. Therefore, the new tire size will be 4.3" larger in overall diameter and 2" larger in overall width. However, you will only need to account for half of each measurement so 2.15" for diameter and 1" for width. The conversion from the 4" drop axle you have now to a straight axle is actually going to bring the spindle down in line with the axle which means you are actually...

• How To Determine Correct Upgraded Wheel and Tire Combination For Boat Trailer.
  I would be happy to recommend some new wheels and tires to replace your tired galvanized wheels currently on your boat trailer, but first I will need a little bit of information about your current wheels and tires. To determine the correct replacement wheels and tires I will need to know what size and bolt pattern your current wheels are. The wheel size will be listed on the tire at the end of the tire size. For example the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel # AM32680...

• Locating Replacement Tires and Wheels for 1963 Holiday Rambler
  I am not able to find what tire size you currently would have on your 1963 Holiday Rambler so unfortunately I can't verify if the Kenda Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire and Wheel Combo # AM32680 that you referenced will work as a replacement. Trailer manufactures don't typically do a good job of making information like this available and it can be especially hard to research on older trailers like what you have. To ensure this tire and wheel will work perfectly you will want to check for...

• Smallest Trailer Wheel And Tire With 6 on 5 1/2" Bolt Pattern With Load Range E Tire
  Hello Glenn! The smallest tire and wheel that we carry in a 6 on 5 1/2" bolt pattern with a load range E is the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2" - Load Range E # AM32680, the outer diameter (when inflated) is 28.4", so it is not going to give you that lowboy style you are looking for. Your best bet on finding a smaller one would be to change the hubs to a 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern.

• Spare Wheel/Tire Carrier for 2021 Coleman 337BH Travel Trailer
  The Ultra Fab spare carrier part # UF15-954730 would work well as a carrier as it was designed to fit 4 inch bumpers like you have and can carry the size wheel tire you mentioned. If your wheel has a 6 bolt pattern you'd want the part # AM32680 or if its a 5 bolt pattern part # AM32545.

• Can Trailer Tires And Wheels Be Mounted Before Shipping?
  If you are specifically looking for the Kenda Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10303, we do have this tire mounted on a 15" White Spoke Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2" # AM32680 and 15" Hi-Spec Aluminum Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2" # AM32684. However, we currently do not have a way to mount tires to wheels before shipping, unfortunately.

• How Much Clearance Between the Frame Is Needed for a Trailer Tire
  The recommended amount of tire clearance to allow for suspension travel on virtually any trailer is 3" from the top of the tire to the bottom of the fender or frame and 1" from the inside of the tire to the frame. If you need to raise the trailer so you don't have to move the tire rack we do have options for you such as the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit part # K71-385-00 or part # K71-384-00 and the Tandem Axle Lift Kit part # RR23QX. We also have options for torsion...

• Recommended Spare Tire Holder & Cover For a 2022 Keystone Cougar Half-Ton 29RLI 5th Wheel RV Camper
  I recommend using the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 on your 2022 Keystone Cougar Half-Ton 29RLI 5th wheel. The CE Smith Offset Spare Trailer Tire Carrier # CE27310G you found is designed to mount to A-Frame style trailers and will only allow for up to a 5 on 4-3/4" bolt pattern. Your Cougar uses a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern and there is not an exposed frame like on travel trailers. I see that your Cougar comes with a 2" receiver from the factory which will allow you to use the...

• Replacement Trailer Tires with Load Range E
  I may have an option for you, however we do not carry the size you're looking for with a load range E. We do sell ST205/75R14 tires, such as # AM10235, however the maximum load range is only high as D. The closest tires we have to the ST205/75R14 with an E load range that you're looking for are # AM32680 that are ST225/75R15 and have a load range E. They'll be almost an inch wider and about 2 inches larger in diameter. So, if you decide to go larger, you'll want to make sure you have...

• Changing Load Range D Trailer Tire To Load Range E
  Before switching to a higher load rated tire, like a load range E, you will want to check the weight capacity on your trailer wheels. If you have a steel wheel, the capacity should be stamped on the backside lip of the wheel. If you have an alloy wheel, this rating should be stamped on the back side of the wheel spokes. A ST225/75R15 load range E tire like # AM10303 will have a capacity of 2,830 lbs at 80 psi. If the wheel has a similar weight capacity you will be good to go. Another option...

• Converting Dexter 5 Spoke Utility Style Hub To 5 Lug Hub Assembly
  We carry one 5 spoke utility style hub similar to yours # 8-174-5UC3 which uses this inner bearing # 25580 and this outer bearing # 15123. I do not have any 5 lug replacements using these bearings, but I do have a 6 on 5-1/2 that will work # AKHD-655-6-K. You won't need to grab any lugs or caps as they come with them but you will need tires and wheels. Here are some radial tires and wheels that will work with your new assembly # AM32680. If these bearing numbers do not match up to yours,...

• Can a Load Range E Trailer Tire be Used in Place of a Load Range D Trailer Tire
  Different size and bolt pattern wheels that take the same tire size will have different psi ratings. If your existing wheels are rated for 65 psi then it is less likely that they would also be rated for 80 psi which is what an ST225/75-15 load range E tire requires. Trailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum psi as indicated on the tire. The person you spoke with must not have known about the difference between trailer tires and passenger vehicle tires. Trailer tires are made...

• Correct Tire Pressure for Kenda Karrier ST225/75R15 Load Range E Tires
  Kenda recommends keeping the 225/75-15 Load Range E tires used on their # AM32680 wheel/tire combo fully inflated to the 80 psi listed on the tire sidewall, because the capacity of the tire is dependent on the air pressure. Some manufacturers, notably Goodyear with their Endurance trailer tires, has load tested their tires over several different air pressure levels, so at a given pressure the tire's capacity is known. Kenda only tests them at the maximum so if you were to run the tires...

• Where are Kenda Trailer Tires Made
  Kenda trailer tires are primarily made in China like most trailer tires. The only Radial trailer tires that I'm aware of that are made in the United States are the Goodyear Endurance line. Carlisle has a bias ply line of tires made in the States, but all of their Radial tires are also made overseas. I'm particularly fond Kenda's tires because they have a testing facility in Ohio where they invest a considerable amount of resources in the testing, design and compound research for their...

• Can a Trailer with 205/75R14 Tires go to 225/75R15 Tires
  Your current tires that are 205/75R14 are 26.3 inches in overall height. The 225/75R15 you are considering is 28.4 inches in height. So that means that the new tires would take up about an inch more of your fender wells. If you have clearance for that you should be just fine. You will have to have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern to fit the Load Range E rim and tire part # AM32680 though. I attached a help article on bolt patterns for you to check out as well.

• Can I Upgrade 3,500 lb Axles to 5,200 lb Axles
  You can definitely swap out your 3,500 lb axles for 5,200 lb axles but there are a number of other things that need to be changed out as well. Your leaf springs can technically stay the same but if you're overloading the axles then you're definitely overloading the leaf springs as well so you need to upgrade there, and even then your trailer frame is rated for a specific weight rating so you can be within your 10,400 lb axle and spring rating but you could be overloading your trailer. If...

• Should Load Range D or E Kenda Tires be Used for a 5,200 lb Axle
  If you are wanting to stick with Kenda tires with the ST225/75R15 size then you will need to go with the Load Range E # AM10303. You always want your tires to be rated for at least the same weight as your axles. The Load Range D # AM10256 has a weight rating of 2,540 lbs at 65 psi which means when using 2 of them your max weight is 5,080 lbs. The Load Range E has a weight rating of 2,830 lbs at 80 psi which means that 2 of them have the combined rating of 5,660 lbs making your 5,200 lb...

• Are There Any 14 Ply 225/75R15 Trailer Tires
  I have some great 225/75R15 trailer tire options for your trailer but they don't quite check all the boxes you listed. For starters, trailer tires don't really go by ply ratings anymore as plies have gotten stronger so they can make the tire hold more weight with less plies. I recommend the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel part # AM32680 which has the highest load range we offer at 2,830 lbs and also maintains an 81 mph speed rating. Unfortunately, we don't have...

• What Wheels Work with the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly 8-174-5UC3
  The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-174-5UC3 is designed for use with old centerless wheels which we don't currently offer. The only option we can offer would be to use the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-201-9UC3-EZ instead which are designed for standard wheels with a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern like the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel part # AM32680 for example. I have attached our full list of wheel/tire options compatible with this...

• Are Pre-Mounted Trailer Tire/Wheel Combination Products Dynamically Balanced Like Automobile Tires
  The tire/wheel combination products that we offer come from the manufacturer already pre-mounted. The tire's low spot is matched to the rim's high spot when they are mounted together. This is not the same as an actual dynamic tire balancing as you would have done when you buy new tires for your automobile but it does provide enough balance for a trailer tire. Certainly you could have trailer tires dynamically balanced by a shop that has the required equipment but it is not absolutely necessary...
