Features to know about

Made for Real Highway Miles: Load Range C with 87-mph Speed Rating

When you’re towing long distances in summer heat or through rough stretches of road, this setup is ready for it. The Kenda Karrier KR53 ST175/80R13 radial tire handles 1,360 lbs at 50 psi with a Load Range C (6-ply rating) and an N speed rating of 87 mph. It’s built for durability and efficiency, using a low-weight design that helps with fuel economy on long trips while meeting DOT specs for road use.

Built to Resist Rust and Road Grime: Silver Powder-Coated Steel Wheel

Saltwater or highway grime won’t get the best of this wheel. The 13" x 4-1/2" steel modular rim uses a two-step e-coat primer and silver powder coat finish that locks out corrosion so it keeps looking good season after season. It’s a sturdy, corrosion-resistant setup that holds up to repeated use in all kinds of conditions.

Durability You Can Count On: Radial Construction and Reinforced Sidewalls

This tire isn’t just strong—it’s made to stay that way over time. The KR53 uses computer-optimized tread design and premium rubber compounds to keep traction solid in wet or dry conditions. Reinforced sidewalls add resistance to ozone exposure and everyday wear, giving you a tire built for consistent performance mile after mile.

Ready When You Are: Tire and Wheel Assembly Comes Mounted

No extra shop time needed. The Kenda Karrier KR53 comes pre-mounted on its 13" silver mod wheel so you can bolt it up and get towing right away. With proper inflation, it measures 23.8" in outer diameter and 6.7" in section width, giving you a balanced feel on the road without any extra hassle.

Confidence Backed by Coverage: 1-Year Worry-Free Guarantee

For peace of mind, Kenda backs this tire with a 1-year worry-free guarantee—if it’s damaged in any way within the first 12 months, it’ll be replaced at no charge. The wheel itself also carries a limited 2-year warranty, so you’re covered from day one.

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"

Spare tire for an Aluma utility trailer that I use to haul my lifted, electric "golf" cart to sporting clays tournaments. Hope to never use it. Exact duplicate of the radial tires and steel wheel that were OEM on the trailer, so I'm happy with the purchase.

by:

Fast shipping, packaged well, product as described, I think it will be a great spare for my boat trailer.



by:

Tires are good. Not a fan of the raised lug holes and channel stamped into the rim. Just seems like over time the metal is going to flex and loosen the lugs



by:

Super fast shipping. Tires arrived in perfect condition. Don't mess around when shopping for trailer tires... etrailer always delivers known brands and great prices.



by:

I am pleased with the tire /wheel combination. They were exactly as shown, the wheel offset was correct as was the lug spacing. Shipping was quick also.



by:

Be careful ordering this Kenda wheel and tire combo. When it arrived, the backside of the wheel was unevenly and poorly coated.

When I called customer service, the representative refused to waive the return shipping fee. Her reasoning? eTrailer is fully aware of this coating flaw, and they expect you to catch it by analyzing the product photos online before buying. She actually asked me, "So it is our fault that Kenda coats the wheels like that?"
While eTrailer didn't manufacture the wheel, they chose to sell a product with a known cosmetic flaw without putting a clear warning in the description.

Assuming a brand-new wheel will have a uniform finish is standard consumer expectation; expecting a customer to spot a defect in a background photo is just poor disclosure.

eTrailer fills their marketing emails with personal employee stories to feel like a small-town business, but their actual return policies offer zero grace or consumer support. If you buy this, make sure you zoom in on every single picture, or be prepared to pay out of your own pocket to ship a flawed product back to them.

I am writing this in hopes that someone who cares about customer experience follows up, takes ownership of a known product issue, and issues a full refund.



by:

I just put the tires on my pop up,everything worked out fine and I really like the chrome rims.I haven’t traveled with them yet but I feel safer with them.



by:

I just received my 175 80r 13 trailer tires and silver mod wheels from etrailer today and put them on my trailer. They are a perfect fit and look great. I can't attest to how they are wearing as I haven't ran them yet but so far the ordering process was seamless and I received them super fast! Thanks etrailer for making me a happy customer!

  • What Info Is Needed to Add Disc Brakes to a Trailer that Weighs 2,800 lb
    Hey Tim, the first thing we need to know is the axle capacity of your trailer so we can get the correct hub/drums and then build everything you need from there. I would assume it's 3,500 lb but it's still worth checking. Are you wanting to do drums or disc brakes? In the meantime I attached a couple articles on adding brakes to a trailer for you to check out as well.

  • Do Trailer Wheel and Tires Get Balanced?
    Hey Edwin, the trailer wheel and tire combos we offer like the Kenda Karrier KR53 ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Silver Mod Wheel # KE35EV are not balanced as generally trailer wheel and tire combos don't get balanced. As an alternative we have balance beads like with the part # CA66VR. Have you been able to feel an unbalanced trailer wheel when towing?

  • Looking For Basic Lightweight Spare Tire For Aluma 5x8 Open Utility Trailer Model 638

  • What Is The Torque Specification And PSI Rating For A ST175/80R13 Tire?
    Hey Twig, thanks for reaching out. Most 13" trailer wheels use 1/2" studs, and the recommended torque spec for those is 75-85 ft-lbs. As for tire pressure, trailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum PSI listed on the sidewall. The Kenda # KE35EV you're looking at has a maximum inflation pressure of 50 PSI, but this can vary depending on the tire. I'd recommend checking the sidewall of your tire to verify the correct pressure for your specific application. What kind of trailer...

  • Looking For Smaller Tires And Wheels For 2017 Casita Independence Deluxe Trailer
    Hey Robert, thanks for reacing out. I don't think you're going to be able to get down to a 10" or 12" wheel on your Casita. With the ST225/75R15 tires you're running now, your trailer almost certainly has 10" electric brakes, and those require at least a 13" wheel to clear the brake drum and backing plate. The 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern is only part of the equation. Even if you found a 10" or 12" wheel with the correct bolt pattern, it still wouldn't clear the brakes. If you're only looking...
