Features to know about

Built for Heavy Weekend Loads: 3,420-lb Load Rating at 80 psi

When you’re loaded down for a full weekend, this tire and wheel combo keeps your trailer steady and predictable. The Maxxis ST235/80R16 radial tire carries up to 3,420 lbs at 80 psi with a Load Range E, 10-ply rating that handles heavier hauls without extra bulk. Reinforced sidewalls stay firm through repeated load cycles so you can tow confidently mile after mile.

Smooth, Balanced Highway Performance: Radial Construction with Bead Balancing

Long drives feel smoother thanks to the internal bead balancing system. The tire is balanced with internal beads instead of external weights, reducing vibration and helping the tread wear more evenly over time. Radial construction adds highway stability and tracking up to its N speed rating of 87 mph, so it stays composed even during long interstate stretches or hot summer runs.

Strong and Corrosion-Resistant: Machined Aluminum Wheel with Steel Inserts

This wheel doesn’t just look sharp—it’s made to last. The black machined aluminum finish resists rust and road grime, while steel lug nut inserts protect the bolt holes for lasting strength and consistent torque. Each wheel is rated for 3,300 lbs and uses a common 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern with a 4.25" pilot diameter, giving you a solid fit that stands up to years of use.

Ready to Roll from the Start: Pre-Mounted and Inflated Assembly

Skip the extra shop stop—this setup comes pre-mounted and aired up so it’s ready to bolt on right out of the box. The built-in bead balancing means no additional weights or mounting steps are required. It’s an easy way to give your trailer an immediate upgrade in performance and appearance without extra hassle.

Protected for the Long Haul: Maxxis Warranties and Roadside Assistance

There’s real peace of mind built in here. The assembly includes a Maxxis 1-Year No Excuses Guarantee for free replacement if the tire fails under normal use, plus 2 years of 24/7 roadside assistance across the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico. The radial tire also carries a 5-year limited warranty, and the aluminum wheel has a lifetime structural warranty—coverage that keeps you rolling when it counts most.

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"

I’ve been really impressed with the Maxxis M8008 tires. If you’re looking for a high-quality trailer tire but don’t want to pay top-shelf prices, these are worth a look. Maxxis has a solid reputation, and the M8008s often get compared to the Goodyear Endurance, but they usually cost a bit less, which makes them a good value in my book.

The build quality seems excellent. The sidewalls feel sturdy, and the tread design looks just as well-made as some of the more expensive brands. What stands out most to me is how well they handle heat. Maxxis uses a proprietary tread compound that keeps the tires cooler on long hauls that gives me confidence that they will hold up over time.

Another nice touch is that they come pre-balanced from the factory. It’s a small detail, but it really helps smooth out the ride and cuts down on vibration.

Overall, I’d say the M8008 is a dependable, well-built tire that performs like a premium option without the premium price tag. If you tow often and want something reliable and cost-effective, these are hard to beat.

  • Does Maxxis ST235/80R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Eagle Aluminum Wheel Come With Lug Nuts
    Hey Matt! The Maxxis ST235/80R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Eagle Aluminum Wheel # MXS87FR does not include lug nuts. It is the wheel and tire only. You can use your old lug nuts if you have them. If you need new lug nuts you will have to determine your wheel bolt size since these wheels are compatible with 1/2"-20 or 9/16"-18 wheel bolts. I would be happy to help you find some if you can add the size in the comments below.

  • Clearance Needed for the Maxxis ST235/80R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Eagle Aluminum Wheel
    Hey Scott. Not sure what tire size you currently have on your trailer but the Maxxis ST235/80R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Eagle Aluminum Wheel item # MXS87FR measures 30.8" in diameter and is 9.25" wide. You'll need at minimum 2" of clearance between the top of your tire and the bottom of your trailer and the same distance from the side wall to your frame. The Maxxis item # MXS87FR is not available with a Goodyear Endurance tire. None of our Goodyear Endurance wheel/tire combos come in a 6...

  • Replacement 16" Wheels and Tires for Keystone Springdale 5th Wheel
    Hey Scott! Sorry to hear about your trouble, looks like the trailer is ok for the most part so that is good news. For similar wheels with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern we have the Maxxis ST235/80R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Eagle Aluminum Wheel # MXS87FR. I know you said you measured but I would double check just to be sure. You're going to lose 1" of clearance on the top of the tire over the tires you have now. If you're looking for a wheel that is a closer match we have the all black Aluminum...

  • Upgrading From 15" to 16" Wheels on 2024 Alliance Avenue All-Access 29RL
    Yes Clinton, I can help! Is there a particular wheel style you're looking for? What is your current tire size? You need to make sure you check for clearance when you move to larger wheels and tires like the Maxxis ST235/80R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Eagle Aluminum Wheel # MXS87FR. I went ahead and attached a link below to all of our 16" wheels and 16" wheel/tire combos with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern for your reference as well.

  • Can I Upgrade From 225/75R15 Tires To 235/80R16 Tires On Tandem Axle Cargo Trailer?
    You can, Ben - but keep in mind, the # MXS87FR uses a larger 16 inch wheel with a ST235/80R16 tire, so you’ll gain roughly an inch in diameter. As long as you have at least 3 inch of fender clearance when loaded, it’s a nice upgrade for capacity and stability. Would you like to share your current fender clearance? I can double-check the spacing for you.

  • Upgrading Aftermarket Aluminum Wheels 15" and 16" For Camper And Utility Trailer
    That’s a great plan, Cheryl. For your camper with 6-lug, 5,200-lb axles, the # MXS87FR is ideal - stylish, aluminum, and rated 3,420 lbs at 80 psi. For your smaller utility trailer with 5-lug, 3,500-lb axles, go with the # MXS67FR. It carries 2,150 lbs at 65 psi and has the same machined black/silver aluminum finish, so the two rigs will match perfectly in style and quality. Both sizes are pre-mounted and balanced for convenience! Do you know which lug nuts and torque specs go along...

  • Which Wheel And Tire Fits My 2022 Big Tex 70CH Car Hauler 6 Lug ?
    Yes, Brian - the Big Tex 70CH runs 5,200-lb axles, so the # MXS87FR is a perfect fit. Each tire is rated 3,420 lbs at 80 psi, giving you plenty of load capacity for hauling vehicles or equipment. Plus, the machined aluminum wheel will resist the rust and chipping that steel wheels can show over time. This is bead balanced and pre-mounted, ready for use! Do you usually haul one car or two? That can help with your rotation intervals.

  • Upgrading From Steel Wheels To Aluminum Black 16" Wheels On 2020 Rockwood Ultra Lite Camper
    Absolutely, Tim. Your Rockwood uses 6-lug hubs, and the # MXS87FR fits those perfectly. You’ll keep the same tire size and load range, but the aluminum wheel resists corrosion and adds a cleaner look than black steel. These also come pre-mounted and balanced, so no worries there! Do you store your trailer outside year-round?

  • Mounted And Balanced 16" Wheels And 235/80/16 Tires For 2021 Grand Design Transcend Travel Trailer
    Yes, Matt, your Transcend runs 5,200-lb axles with 6-on-5-1/2 hubs, so the # MXS87FR bolts right on. Each Maxxis ST235/80R16 Load Range E tire supports 3,420 lbs at 80 psi, giving you a solid safety margin. The machined black-and-silver aluminum wheel looks sharp and won’t rust like steel, and they come mounted and balanced already with internal balancing beads! Do you typically run full load, or lighter camping trips?

  • Choosing Between 15" Wheels MXS67FR And 16" Wheels MXS87FR For Trailer
    Good question, Alan. The difference comes down to size and axle class. The # MXS67FR is the 15 inch 5-lug version for 3,500-lb axles and lighter trailers. The # MXS87FR is the 16 inch 6-lug setup for up to 6,000-lb axles on larger RVs or tandem utility trailers. Both feature the same sleek aluminum design and durable Maxxis radials that are pre-mounted and balanced. What type of trailer are you outfitting? Do you currently have wheels and tires to go off?

  • Do The Pre-Mounted 235/80R16 Tires On 6 Lug 16" Wheels Already Balanced From The Factory?
    They’re ready to roll, Lisa. The Maxxis ST235/80R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Eagle Aluminum Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2 # MXS87FR assemblies are bead-balanced from the factory and come with high-pressure valve stems pre-installed. You just bolt them on and torque them to 90–100 ft-lbs for aluminum wheels. Do you already have a torque wrench handy, or would you like a link to a good one for trailers?

  • Do You Have the Replacement Lionshead Jaguar Wheel 16"?
    Hello Emily, Welcome to etrailer, I'm glad you found us! Thank you for sending that picture over.

  • Pre-Mounted And Balanced Aluminum Lightweight 16" Wheels And Tires For 6 Lug Trailer
    Great question, Alex. I’d go with the Maxxis # MXS87FR. It pairs the proven ST235/80R16 Load Range E Maxxis radial tire (3,420 lbs @ 80 psi) with a sleek black-and-machined aluminum Eagle wheel that’s both lightweight and corrosion-resistant. It gives you the strength without the rust, and it’s rated for 87 mph highway speeds, so it’ll handle those long hauls with ease. This comes pre-mounted and balanced which is a super nice benefit. Do you tow year-round or just seasonally? I can...

  • Looking For Aftermarket Black Aluminum 16" Wheel And Tire For 6 Lug Trailer
    Hey there, Kory, great question. The # MXS87FR will fit as long as your trailer has 6 on 5-1/2" hubs and uses 16" tires now. Each Load Range E tire carries 3,420 lbs at 80 psi, and the clear-coated aluminum Eagle wheel keeps its shine for years. It’s a great choice if you’re upgrading from steel wheels or older bias tires. These are pre-mounted and balanced with internal balancing beads to reduce vibration, so you're all set right out the gate. Do you know what size wheels and tires you...

  • Matching Aluminum Black Wheels 15" And 16" For Two Different Trailers
    You sure can, Randy. For your smaller 5-lug trailer, the # MXS67FR is the perfect match - it’s an ST205/75R15 Load Range D Maxxis radial 2,150 lbs @ 65 psi on a black-and-machined aluminum Eagle wheel. For your larger flatbed, the # MXS87FR uses that same upgraded wheel design in a 16 inch 6-lug version with the ST235/80R16 Load Range E tire 3,420 lbs @ 80 psi. They’ll match visually and both come bead-balanced and ready to install. What do you haul on these, Randy?
