Video Transcript for All About the Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Camo Mod Wheel

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 load range D radial trailer tire with this 15 inch steel camo mod wheel with a 5 on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern. Now this tire and wheel assembly is gonna be great for your stock trailers and utility trailers and campers, and this camouflage wheel on your trailer could be a great choice for you to consider if you're an outdoor enthusiast or someone who likes the idea of blending into nature. This can show your passion for the outdoors and outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, or camping, just to name a few. Now this special trailer tire, or ST tire, has sturdy sidewalls so that it can handle heavy loads. It is created specifically for trailers and not intended for use on other vehicles.

As you probably know, radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway, and this tire is constructed with double steel belts and full nylon plies that combine for superior function and long tire life. Now this design supports smooth, even wear, and the silica-infused tread and sipe angles reduce hydroplaning. So this is going to give you excellent handling in off-road situations. Now as I mentioned at the beginning of our time together, and as we have stamped here on our tire, this is an ST205/75R15, and the section width of this tire is 7.9 inches, the outer diameter when fully inflated is 27.3 inches, and this is a load range D tire, meaning it has an eight ply rating. The maximum load is 2,200 pounds at 65 PSI.

And this has a speed rating of M, indicating a maximum speed of 81 miles per hour. Now you might have noticed this red cap on this valve stem here. That red cap indicates that this assembly has been bead balanced. Now balancing beads, as you might know, are a method used to balance tires, and they can be particularly useful for trailer tires, which often don't come pre-balanced. The beads are placed inside the tire during production.

Then as this tire rotates on your trailer, those beads are going to distribute themselves to counteract any imbalances, promoting even tire wear and better performance. Now this modular steel wheel with this camouflage pattern by Dexstar, it is sturdy and corrosion resistant. This wheel has actually been dipped in a camouflage strata pattern finish over eco primer. The measurements of this wheel, the diameter, measuring bead seat to bead seat, is 15 inches, the width of this wheel is 5 1/2 inches, the bolt pattern is 5 on 4 1/2 inches. And in case you don't know, the first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes, and then the second number is the diameter in inches of the circle on which those bolt holes sit.

So to determine the bolt circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, as we have here, you simply measure the center of one bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. The capacity of this wheel is 2,200 pounds. The wheel stud size is 1/2 inch by 20. The center cap is sold separately, but if you decide to pick one up, you just wanna make sure that it fits the pilot diameter of 3.19 inches. This tire and wheel assembly does meet the Department of Transportation specifications. So if you are looking to have your trailer reflect your love for nature, for the outdoors, for outdoor adventure, and you're looking for a camouflage tire to maybe even match the camouflage pattern that you have on your trailer or on your boat or maybe even on your truck, this assembly's really gonna be a great option for you to consider. Well I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that our time together has been helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
