This tire-and-wheel combo shows up ready to go. The ST225/75R15 radial tire comes already mounted on a 15" black machined aluminum wheel and inflated to proper pressure, so you can bolt it on right out of the box. No need for a shop visit or extra mounting time—just install and get moving.
When you’re carrying serious weight, you want a setup that’s built to handle it. This Load Range D (8-ply) tire supports up to 2,540 lbs at 65 psi, giving you the extra capacity needed for demanding hauls. The 6 on 5-1/2" aluminum wheel adds strength and stability, so every trip feels solid and predictable.
Radial construction keeps heat down on those long highway runs while promoting even tread wear for longer life. The Kenda KR53 tread design tracks straight and steady, helping your trailer roll smooth and stay planted mile after mile. It’s a strong performer whether you’re cruising short distances or running across the country.
The machined aluminum wheel stands up to weather and grime that would quickly wear down lesser materials. Its corrosion-resistant finish helps keep it looking sharp while protecting against rust, even after long exposure to moisture or road debris.
Kenda backs this combo with a 1-year tire guarantee—if it fails under normal use in the first year, they’ll replace it. The wheel itself carries a limited 2-year warranty. It’s extra assurance that your setup is ready for many reliable miles ahead.
If the tire fails under normal use in the first year, Kenda will replace it. That's confidence you can count on, whether you're heading to the jobsite or the campsite.
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"

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the Kenda Karrier KR53 ST225 75R15 radial trailer tire in a load range D and it's mounted on this 15 inch Series AMO six black aluminum trailer wheel with a six on five and a half inch bolt pattern. Now this tire wheel assembly is ideal for utility trailers, cargo trailers, and even campers. This assembly here comes all pre mounted and aired up so it's ready to install right out of the box. The wheel they use is an aluminum wheel. It's durable, lightweight, and rustproof.
And as we mentioned, it's a series AMO six. As you can see, it's a split six spoke design in black with machined edges on the spokes, and even on the lip. Gives you a nice shine to the wheel. And the front and the back of the wheel are clear coated. If you notice the center cap is not included.
If you do want a center cap, we do sell those separately on our website. You do wanna make sure to get a center cap that'll have the same diameter of this opening here, the pilot hole right here 'cause when you install your cap, it'll go through this hole. The diameter on this pilot hole is 3.74 inches. The wheel itself, the diameter is 15 inches. The width on the wheel is six inches wide.
Bolt pattern on this wheel is a six on five and a half inch bolt pattern. And if you want to measure that on a wheel, it's an even number of lugs, like in this case, six. It's pretty easy because if you notice the lug holes are directly across from each other. So all you have to do is pick one of the holes, let's say this one, and measure from the center of this hole directly across to the center of the hole right across from it. On this wheel, it'll measure five and a half inches.
So that's telling me this is a six lug or six on five and a half inch bolt pattern. The lug size, this uses a half inch by 20. Weight capacity on just the wheel is 2,960 pounds. And the tire is a Kenda Karrier KR53. It is an ST radial trailer tire with a computer designed footprint. Gives you exceptional wear across many different loads, gives you superior traction, wet or dry conditions. And it is an ST tire, which means a special trailer tire. So it uses this sturdy sidewall so we can handle heavy loads. And it is created specifically for trailers. It's not intended for use on other vehicles. They do use double steel belts and full nylon ply. Combines for superior function long line. And the tire size will be stamped on the sidewall. And where you'll find it is right down by the wheel, you'll see ST for special trailer 225 75R15. R means that it is a radial tire. Section width, 8.6 inches. Overall diameter from the bottom to the top, when it's inflated, it's 28.5 inches. And we mentioned this is a load range D tire, which means it's an eight ply rated tire. Has a maximum load capacity of 2,540 pounds at 65 PSI. And this tire does come with a speed rating on it. And they stamp it on the sidewall, but it is in a letter designation. And where you'll find it, is right after the tire size, you'll see two numbers for the load index and then a letter N. Speed rating N means this has an 87 mile per hour speed rating. Now this tire wheel assembly does meet the DOT, Department of Transportation, specifications. But that's gonna do it for a look at this Kenda Karrier KR53 ST225 75R15 radial trailer tire in a load range D mounted on this 15 inch black aluminum trailer wheel.
