This radial tire is made for real highway use. The Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire from Kenda carries a Load Range D (8-ply rating) and handles up to 2,200 lbs at 75 psi. With a speed rating of M (81 mph), it’s built to stay cool and stable mile after mile. The tough construction and high load rating give you the margin you want for long hauls or heavy loads without worrying about heat buildup or premature wear.
The tire’s full nylon plies and double steel belts work together for excellent stability and traction in wet or dry conditions. Its computer-generated tread design and premium rubber compound help it track straight and ride smooth at highway speeds. Radial construction positions the cords at a 90-degree angle to reduce rolling resistance and heat, so tread life lasts longer and handling stays predictable.
This special trailer (ST) radial tire has sturdy sidewalls made specifically to handle vertical load, not cornering like a car tire. That extra stiffness keeps your trailer steady under weight, even when loaded near its limit. It fits 14" x 5", 14" x 5-1/2", 14" x 6", and 14" x 6-1/2" wheels with an overall diameter of 26.3" and section width of 8.1". Every detail is optimized for dependable highway towing performance that meets Department of Transportation specifications.
Kenda backs this tire with a 5-year limited warranty plus a unique 1-year worry-free guarantee—if the tire is damaged in any way during the first year, it’s replaced at no charge. That kind of coverage means you can tow with confidence knowing your Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire is protected from day one.
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"

Ernest,Yes I had 13 18580D13s as standard equipment. Put on Hankook 195 75R14 8 ply load range D 2094 lbs at 65psi. Tires fit fine. There is hardly any difference in the width and height increased maybe 1 inch. I have taken the trailer on logging roads with pot holesbad washboard without any issues.With the 13 inch tires on i had 2 clearance on each side and about 7-8 from the top of tire to the wheel well Jayco will not give you any help and Dexter, axle manufacture, sent information but to check the clearances out required a lift which i did not have. Common sense dictated the 14 tires would work and they do. Hope this helps just check the side wall and top clearances.Hope this helpsclearances

These tires are still working great. Tread and sidewalks still look like new after a year of service in south Louisiana.

We have driven over 12,000 miles on this tire since putting it on our Chalet 1935XL A-frame pop-up camper. The tires offer a very smooth ride, hold their balance well, and have shown only very slight wear over the 12,000 miles. No flats. No problems. No unusual loss of air pressure. Just a very good, dependable, and long wearing tire for our camper. Based on our real-world use, I highly recommend the Kenda Carrier tire. Its been a good value and offers peace of mind every time we hook it up!

Tires continue to perform well, NO FLATS OR BLOW.OUTS. Tites hold pressure extremely well, rarely do I need to add air between trips. I use TireMinders to monitor the tire while on the road, I am very satisfied with them as well.

So far so good. I must admit I have not towed the boat much over the last year. I will soon use it to support sailing camp at the local sailing club and then will use again in fall to support a Hospice regatta.

I have had the Kenda Karrier ST20575R14 tires on my camper for 1 year now. No problems with the tires and they seem to be wearing good. I load the camper down heavy and make 300 mile trips frequently. I will buy the next set of tires from etrailer.com if I ever need them.

Great tire. After another year of use the tires still look like new. The load range D tires carry the weight better and gives me great peace of mind.

Im very happy with the tires. 1500 miles on them with no issues. Great to have the piece of mind that they have a load rating with a good safety margin compared to the tires that came with our RV.

They are doing great. Been to the Rockies on them several times. I made 2 short trips in February to get ready for the 2017 camping season.

Were your original rims 13 inch? I have 13 inch rims with ST18580D13 bias ply load range D tires on my Jayco Jayfeather Ultralite 228 trailer and am looking to switch to radials in load range D... These are about as close to the original tire size as I can find. If you did up-size from smaller rims and tires, how is it working out for you?
