Platinum Plus Warranty with Roadside Assistance
This tire-and-wheel assembly comes with a Platinum Plus warranty that includes complimentary roadside assistance for 2 years. If your trailer has a flat tire, call the help line and a technician will come change out the flat tire with your existing inflated spare tire. The service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition to the roadside assistance, this warranty also includes other benefits and services.
Durable Acrylic Enamel Finish
The steel wheel goes through a 3-step finishing process that makes it both attractive and corrosion resistant. The wheel is first submerged in a zinc phosphate bath to ensure good paint adhesion. It is then e-coated with an acrylic primer base and the outboard side is finished with baked-on DuPont powdeThe wheel on this assembly has a durable acrylic enamel finish on the front. The finish is applied after the wheel goes through an environmentally safe zinc phosphate pre-treatment and is coated with an e-coat primer layer. Compared to powder coat finishes, this finish resists getting chipped from flying road debris or scraped from hitting a curb for a longer period of time. These acrylic enamel wheels performed for more than 1,000 hours in salt spray tests.r paint. The light e-coat on the inboard side of the wheel reduces friction between the wheel and your hub and eliminates the flaking that can occur with a heavily applied paint finish.
The automotive-rated center disc is raised and the stud holes are beveled and uncoated for better clamp force retention. This technology helps the wheel stay tight against your hub without the need for constant retightening.
Taskmaster radials have double polyester cords and double steel belts for increased durability and endurance. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation. Taskmaster radials are bake tested - a process usually reserved for automotive tires - to ensure that the rubber holds up over time.
The standard tread on this tire has solid, continuous ribs, and there are very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. This tire is designed for use on trailers, so it doesn't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.
Radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway. The cords on a radial tire are positioned at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel so that they lay across the width of the tire from wheel lip to wheel lip. This construction prevents the cords from rubbing against one another when the tire flexes, unlike the cords on a bias ply tire. As a result, radial tires have less rolling resistance and heat buildup, which leads to a longer tread life and improved steering at higher speeds.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
Measuring the distance from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this Taskmaster 530 R 12 radial trailer tire in a load range C and it's mounted on this 12 inch Vesper white spoke steel trailer wheel with the four on four inch bolt pattern. Now this tire wheel assembly is ideal for stock trailers, utility trailers, and even campers. The wheel we mentioned it is a steel wheel, has the spoke design and it's sturdy and corrosion resistant. If you notice, it's a white acrylic enamel finish, which will resist chipping and other damage better than your powder coat finishes. Basically this finish is applied after a zinc phosphate pretreatment and it covers an eco primer layer.
This will give you excellent corrosion resistance, has a salt spray rating of more than a thousand hours. The dimension on the wheel itself, the diameter, which is measured inside, inside is 12 inches. The width, four inches wide. The bolt pattern we mentioned on this wheel is a four on four inch bolt pattern. And if you wanna measure that on a wheel that has an even number of lugs, like in this case four, it's pretty easy 'cause the lug holes go directly across from each other.
So just pick any hole, let's say this one, and you'll measure from the center of this hole to the center of the hole right across from it. So on this one it'll measure four inches. So it's a four lug, four inch bolt pattern. It does use a wheel lug size of half inch by 20, and the weight capacity on just the wheel is 1,520 pounds. Now if you notice, this does not come with a center cap.
If you do want a center cap, we do sell those separately. But when you do purchase the center cap, you do wanna make sure to get one that has the same diameter as this pilot hole, 'cause when you install your center cap, it'll go through this hole. Diameter on this pilot hole here is 2.84 inches. This is a ST tire, which stands for a special trailer tire, has the sturdy sidewall so they can handle heavy loads. It is created specifically for trailer that's not intended for use on other vehicles.
The tire is a radial tire, so it is constructed with double steel belts. Double polyester cords for a nice long life. Tire is bake tested to ensure that the rubber holds up overtime. And they do use a nylon tread firming belt overlay to help prevent tread separation. Now the tire size, which will be stamped on the sidewall 5.30 R 12, the R means it's a radial. The section width 5.4 inches. The overall diameter from the bottom to the top, when it's inflated, it's 21.6 inches. This tire is a load range C, which means it's a six ply rated tire. Has a maximum load capacity of 1050 pounds at 80 PSI. Now this assembly does meet the DOT Department of Transportation specification and it does exceed the federal motor vehicle safety standards. This tire does also have a speed rating on it, and that speed rating is stamped on the sidewall. It's pretty small. What you'll need to do is go down right where they show the load range C and you'll see very small at top it'll say 81 miles per hour. So this has a speed rating of 81. This also comes with a two year platinum plus warranty, which will include emergency tire change service and other benefits. But that's gonna do it for a look at this Taskmaster 530 R 12 radial trailer tire in a load range C on this 12 inch Vesper white spoke steel trailer wheel.
Looks great! Since it's my spare, hopefully I'll never use it.
They were exactly what we ordered and what we needed.
Etrailer has been my supplier for hitches, snow chains and now wheels with pre-mounted tires. Excellent service never a problem.
Easy to buy the right tire and rim. Unbelievable fast shipping. Thanks for the great service.
The trailer tire and wheel combination look great and fit perfectly. Packaging was great, fast shipping and the company is easy to deal with, very helpful as well.
After approximately 25 hours of highway and gravel roads these radial tires definitely ride and track better than bias ply tires.
etrailer's team came through in the clutch. Original tires were on back order and I was leaving for Canada in just a few days. So I contacted them and opted for a slightly larger version of the same tire. They got them out the same day and arrived in time for my much anticipated fishing trip. Thanks again.
I bought an older Jayco camper with the original wheels and tires probably about 15 years old. Ended up buying these wheel/tire combos for both sides and the spare. They look great and are radials so should not have to worry about them for a long time.
I think Amy & company are top notch! Great communication, fast delivery, fits & looks great! I will take the pop up out on her maiden voyage & keep you posted! Thanks a bunch!
