When you’re logging miles across hot pavement or pulling through rough conditions, this setup keeps pace. The Kenda Loadstar 8-ply bias tire handles 1,165 lbs at 70 psi with a speed rating of M (81 mph). It’s mounted on a strong 8" x 7" steel wheel rated for 1,040 lbs, and the full assembly meets Department of Transportation specs for confident highway use.
Steel strength with a clean, lasting finish. The 8" wheel has a white powder coat over an e-coat primer that fights corrosion and protects against road grime and water. It’s a simple way to keep your setup looking sharp while resisting rust season after season.
The bias construction uses thick nylon cords set at a 30- to 45-degree angle in alternating layers. Those crisscross plies create a stiff sidewall that lets the whole tire flex as one piece, providing solid handling and a smoother ride over uneven or off-pavement surfaces.
This tire-and-wheel combo comes pre-mounted and inflated to proper pressure so you can bolt it on and go. The balanced setup runs quiet and steady at speed, giving you that “tow smoother” feel that owners appreciate when hauling loaded or empty.
No guesswork on fit. This assembly uses a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, a 2.8" pilot diameter, and zero offset for straightforward mounting. The wheel bolt size is 1/2"-20, and the tire measures 215/60-8 with an 8.9" section width and 18.1" outer diameter when inflated—clear specs that make matching up easy and accurate.
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
These are like the second or third set of tires I have purchased from etrailer. The last set was purchased over 4 years ago. I use them on my 2 place snowmobile trailer, which keeps the sun off them at all times. (I carry my two 4 wheelers on it) 4 years and about 10,000 miles or so on the tires. I’m satisfied with that. I made I don’t know how many trips to Hatfield McCoy Trails. It’s a 7 hour trip. I would do it in the winter and summer months. I ask a lot from these tires and I get good service from them. I think the next time I purchase tires from etrailer, I going to use the 10 inch wheels and tires. They come in a load range E 10 ply tires. These are 8 inch wheels and tires, which are 8 ply tires. The 10 inch will travel just a little slower at highway speeds, plus they’re 10 ply.
Thank you etrailer for carrying good products
I needed new tires for a snowmobile trailer I just purchased. I have ordered from eTrailer in the past and have been satisfied with the purchase. I am most please by the fantastic shopping experience. I ordered these wheels and tires on Monday at 0937. They were packed and shipped before lunch. I received them today before lunch. 48 hours. Incredible. Thank you. I will be ordering from you next time I need tires.
Very easy to find the item I needed. Quick delivery and love it that alls I needed to do was take them out of the box and bolt them on and done.
A little more money then area stores but better tires.
Fast shipping
Tires are just what I was expecting and etrailer gets stuff shipped out fast.
Great price, fast shipping, great produ ct.
I could not find this size tire with 5-hole rims at numerous locations near to where I live. E-trailer not only had them but had tires with greater load capacity than any local retailers. Ordered and tires arrived in a couple of days even though it is almost X-mas. Tires and rims look to be well made. I have Kenda tires on some other trailers and they have not let me down yet.
They were packaged well , they are perfect for my snowmobile trailer that I am using to haul my UTV because the tires have a higher load rating.. I think I made a good choice in these tires and a good price from etrailer.com. Thank you etrailer.com for the free shipping and fast delivery
The tires/rims were a perfect fit and came fully inflated. I just needed to mount them and I was back on the road in minutes. Aaron H was very helpful with the ordering process and the tires arrived on the day I expected.
Quick Shipping, and decent prices
I ordered two of the above tires & wheels for my Triton flatbed trailer and was very pleased with the experience. The tires arrived promptly and were shipped in a cardboard box. The tires were inflated and ready to mount on my trailer. The manufacturing date code on the tires indicated they were made in July of 2024, just a month ago.

Tires are still great, have not lost any air pressure in the last year. The trailer has not been used as much as we thought it would be, but its always ready to go.
I build custom trailers and my customers trust that I give them the best available with each build. These tires, and etrailer are my go-to sources for quality products and excellent customer service. Kenda makes a great tire! You will not be disappointed.

Everything is great! I ended up building two more of these trailers for the same customer and they are all performing well.
Haven’t put them on yet, but decent quality tires. Super fast shipping!
Upgrade to my Triton XT for higher speed and load ratings. Best price I could find anywhere. Very fast shipping and a perfect fit.
These tires are rims fit great and really changed the look of my Taylor Dunn
They fit perfect now to take it to river and launch the boat on the sandbar Becuase we don’t have boat ramps where I am at
I need an 8 ply tire for my trailer, only place to find them is here. The products are the best. The phone support is also the best, and the prices are the best. I usually have to shop around when buying something, but not tires or trailer parts, you guys are the best. Thank-you Bob

I have to ask what the art is on the side car. Is it a dragon?
Fit my trailer! 6 hour trip.. not to exceed 60 65 mph... we will see how it handles on a long trip with these speed rated 81mph max tires. Very Fast shipping
NOT happy !!!! can't believe you sell a load range D tire on a rim that is less weight load bearing. The rim is weaker than the tire load.
Shipping was super fast. Tires and rims are still holding up after 1 year of service.
No complaints, I would order again with no hesitation.
This is my second set of Kenda tires for this trailer. The first set lasted 5 years and thousands of miles and I only replaced due to hitting a nail and ruining one tire.
Etrailer offered a great price with fast shipping. Received these tires 3 days after ordering them.
I used these on a scissor lift to build a pole barn in the dirt. The original solid rubber wheels were getting stuck in the slightest soft soil. These are able to float over the soft spots while still providing stability. I did have to use wheel spacers for my model of scissor lift. Would highly recommend.

Each week I feel like I see a new way products are used, and this is a first for me! That is super cool, I am glad you were able to get them working for your application to get that barn made. It is good to know just some spacers and it was able to work. What was the intention behind the barn, animals, hay?
fit perfect on my 8' x 8' snowmobile trailer. fast shipping. tires heavy duty.Thank You
This is undoubtedly the finest store on the internet for any purchase. The communication was excellent, and the product received matched its description precisely. Shipping was prompt and accurate. I particularly appreciated the explanatory video about the product. Amazon could certainly learn from this exemplary service, as this is how it should be. And, of course, it's an American Store.
