Specs:
Unlike standard trailer tire tread, which has solid, continuous ribs, the automotive-grade, computer-generated tread on these Karrier S-Trail radials has ribs with breaks. These breaks allow water to run off to the sides. The Karrier S-Trail tread also has sipes. Siping is a process in which thin grooves (or sipes) are cut into the rubber of the tire. The grooves channel water away from the tread so that the tire makes better contact with the road. Both of these features greatly improve traction during wet, snowy, or icy conditions.
Karrier S-Trail radials are constructed with double steel belts and full nylon plies for increased durability and endurance. The premium rubber compound materials of this tire help disperse heat.
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.

Radial special trailer tire with automotive-grade tread has a ply rating of 8 and a 1,220-lb max load at 65 psi. Designed for highway use. Constructed of double steel belts and full nylon plies. Fits 12" wheels.I have had the best performance and life with these compared to all other trailer tires. I put 5000 hard /long miles at a time and these have withstood the test. Highly recommend. Etrailers service, delivery and follow-up has also been excellent over the years. Thanks George. 282291
These tires are NICE tires! Taller than I expected, which is ok , because I put these tires on my little camper and gave it more ground clearance. I bought these tires because we pull our camper long distances and the bias tires were blowing out quite a bit. I haven't taken out my camper yet for a trial run but hoping these will give me what I need when we travel. 658958
I ordered 5.30 x 12 mounted trailer tires. They were back ordered for months. Emily was very helpful changing my order to ST145/R12 tires. Thank you!! Greg 282443
Kenda has been around since 1962, so I'm guessing these tires will be good. They certainly look good, and needed very little weight for balance, which is a sign of quality. I also wanted Radials, as here in Texas we have lots of straight, high speed highways. If there are any problems, I'll do a follow-up. 614301
I have purchased two tires from etrailer.com. The service was excellent. 128322
Erik - 04/30/2015Tire works great, its 8 ply not 2 ply that has on a used tent trailer i just bought. 153280
C G - 09/26/2015Just got them mounted and on the trailer...haven't yet driven them but from what I have read and now see I believe they will be all that I expected... longer life and better handling than my old tires. Excellent price, fast delivery...thank you 719535
Shipped quickly in a sturdy box. Tires look and feel great, not mounted yet. I had been running nylon belted bias ply tires on my snowmobile trailer. I buy one or two a year because the gravel road tears them up. I am stepping up to these steel belted radials in a higher load range. It will be a while before I have a use review... 711264
Looks good so far, I have not installed them yet. Fast delivery. 696146
Looks to be a very sturdy tire made very well. Will revisit when I get them mounted and on the trailer. Very fast shipping great people to do business with, talked with Hally on the phone she was very helpful. 692871

Nice radial tires. Fresh manufacturing date and protected in a very sturdy cardboard box when shipped. 679506
Haven't installed the tires yet but they appear to be high quality and are going to be exactly what I need 672933
I have not yet installed the tires but they look like good quality and just what I needed for my Boat trailer 671434
Just what I was looking for 659972
products met expectation, and everything seems to fit as specified. shipped promptly 653060
Ground shipping was free and took only a couple business days which was impressive over the holiday weekend. Wheels/tires look great--very happy so far, can't wait to get them on the skiff trailer. etrailer had the heavier rated tire for this rim size, most were the nylon biased ply--these tires give a better piece of mind for running longer distances given the awful construction conditions in NE FL! 647858
Great product and fast delivery on tires 636991
The people at etrailer were very helpful determining if these tires could replace my old load c rated tires. Haven't pulled the trailer yet, but they did fit the rims and fenders. Look like good tires. 634712
Although I have not had the opportunity to use these tires yet, now that they have arrived they look like good quality tires and I think that they will work great. I have used e.trailer for last three purchases made for my boat and utility trailers. Quality and price always great. One shipping delay 616354
Overall great product and perfect fit. Will see what king of mileage/wear I get out of these tires 605788
I haven't actually mounted the tires yet, but they seem like quality tires by looks and feel. The real hero here is etrailer.com as my order was here two days after placing my order! This is the second very successful transaction I've had with them and won't be the last! 605291
I like the fact that the tires came in a box as not to crush them or deform them like I have received from other companies in the past and makes them hard for people to mount they were in perfect condition extremely happy 545711
