Features:
Specs:
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.

Today we're going to take a look at the Kenda Karrier ST175/80r13 radial trailer tire in a load range D. Now, this is a special trailer tire design. It'll provide the strength of a bias tire as well as the durability and stability of a radial tire. It is created specifically for trailers. It's not intended for use on any other vehicles. It does use the double steel belts, the full nylon plys to combine for superior function and long tire life.
They do use a nice computer-generated tread design and premium rubber compound materials, which will give you maximum traction in wet or dry conditions. It gives a nice, smooth ride and excellent stability at highway speeds. It is a trailer tire, so it does meet the Department of Transportation specifications.A few specs on this. This tire is designed to fit on a wheel size of 13" x 4 1/2" wide, 13" x 5" wide, and 13" x 5 1/2" wide. The tire size should be stamped on here.
ST for special trailer, 175/80r13. The "r" means it's a radial tire. Section width is going to be right at 7". Overall diameter from the bottom to the top when it's inflated is 24.1. This tire is a load range D, which means it's an 8-ply rated tire, and it does have a maximum load capacity of 1,650 pounds at 70 psi.
And the last thing I do want to mention, most all the new trailer tires are coming through with a speed rating now, and the speed rating's always listed by a letter designation, and that's usually right after the tire size. So right here where we went through the tire size, if you look after it there's two numbers for a load index and then a letter M. Speed rating M will mean that it has an 81 mile per hour speed rating.But that should do it for the review on the Kenda Karrier ST175/80r13 radial trailer tire in a load range D.

Radial special trailer tire provides excellent traction for a safe, smooth ride in both wet and dry conditions. Constructed of double steel belts and full nylon plies. Fits 13" wheels and has a maximum load capacity of 1,650 lbs at 70 psi.Just what I was after to increase my load rating and speed. Shipped very fast received 4 days before expected. 540775
Please keep in mind that running a tire with a higher load rating will not necessarily increase the load bearing capacity of your trailer. You will still be limited by the capacity of the lowest rated component.
--As always, Etrailer delivered what I needed and fast. The Karrier ST tires I ordered were only a few weeks old according to the date stamp. 107320
The tires still look like new after ~6000 miles. Ill buy these again when I need new tires.
This tire will be used as a replacement on my boat trailer. I'd been waiting for over 3 weeks to receive this make tire from a dealer in the Cleveland Ohio area. I canceled the order after speaking with Natalie, who, by the way is a wonderful customer service representative. Then, I received the tire 2 days later! Great company and excellent service!! When I need tires again I'll call. Thanks Natalie 656281
I needed four tires for a travel trailer and two plus new springs for a boat trailer. Customer service was very helpful with wisdom about tires and searching for some hardware we couldn't exactly match but found some good enough. Gave me her number at end of first call in case I needed any more help and I did. A few hours after ordering I got email reporting all shipped. All arrived on predicted time. Over the years I have noticed that tire quality is often approximately reflected in visible details like the fit of the mold segments, amount of flash, the surface finish, sharpness of details. These are some of the prettiest tires I've ever seen that weren't top of the line Michelins, Pirellis or Bridgestones. I gave them a roll and a sharp eye and saw no wavers vertical or horizontal. Of course the ultimate issue is price. I don't know how you do it. No store in Jacksonville can come close. Even Wal-mart. 595740
Ordered tires for trailer. Rec'd the freshest I've ever seen. Manufacture date was 30 week of 2017. Installed 7/19/17. Does that even add up???? 8 Ply trailer tires hopefully will minimize the tire explosions in the future. 409689
So far so good.
I recieved the trailer tires really fast. They have a good tread design and when mounted look great. I installed them on a very small travel trailer which came out with a load range C. These have a load range D which should be an improvement due to a little more pressure and carring capacity. I am very pleased with the delivery time and looks of the tires. 119820
After looking locally with no luck (a salesperson at a local large chain tire store told me “hmmm, I don’t think we sale tires for a camper”, I found the exact tires I was looking for at etrailer.com. Good price and delivered to my door step in 3 days!! Thanks etrailer! 645270
I purchased two of these tires for my boat trailer 5 years ago. They had maybe 10-12k miles on them. Last fall I had one of the tires go bad - the tire cords failed causing uneven wear. It didn't blow out but I was perhaps lucky. Purchased a replacement - same tire. Last month I had a similar cord failure with the other old tire. After that problem was going to purchase 2 new name brand tires but couldn't find any D load rating tires in the 175/80R13 tires. Decided to just buy another Karrier tire. When my mechanic changed out the second tire he said the inside of this one was far worse than the first failure. I was running the tires with 55 psi of air with a max listed pressure of 65 psi. Maybe that was a factor so now running the tires at 60 psi and plan on changing them after 3 years. Not real comfortable with these tires but hopefully I can get 3 years out of them without a failure. 280969
These tires replaces identical tires I bought in 2008 for my TT. We drove to Alaska from Ontario, Canada, in 2009 and then to New Foundland in 2010 in addition to several other minor trips to the east coast and local camping trips. I always maintained 65PSI , whether the TT was parked or on the road. Never had a problem, and they feel good on the road. While the thread is still good, i prefer to get new ones as we are going a trip to BC this Summer... 6 yrs old including 6 Canadian Winters, I prefer to be safe than sorry on the road. I know they are made in China and I sure hope the new ones will be as good as those they will replace. 132141
the 185 80 13 max psi of 65. New to towing, curious - the max psi is 65...what would you anyone recommend for cold tire pressure. This is for a popup camper, empty weight 2175 lbs. loaded - guessing 2,500 lbs.Car tires have max psi of 36, manufactuer recommends 32 cold.heres where the confusion sets inThanks!
-- comment by: Kurt E - 06/08/2014Car tires and trailer tires work a bit differently. The car manufacturer specifies where to air the tires to for the best combination of ride and performance. With trailer tires, their load capacity is in part determined by tire pressure. If the trailer tire has a max of 65 psi, you will need to air to 65 psi cold in order to achieve full weight capacity. If the pressure is less, so is the weight capacity of the tire. Pressures on the side of a tire are always cold figures.
--The tires purchased in 2014 have been good , however I sold the TT earlier this Spring. Having said that , this last Spring, I bought the same make for my utility trailer and my new to me tent trailer. I always have maintained the pressure at the maximum PSI for the maximum load. When on the road, I checked them daily , during the evening, 5 or 6 hrs after we stopped or first thing in the morning, before leaving. So far absolutely great tires.
I bought 2 wheels and 3 tires to replace some old tires on my double PWC trailer. Put both new wheels on yesterday and mounted the extra on an old wheel for a spare. Mounted this to the trailer using spare tire carrier and everything worked out great. The tires and wheels look great and the spare mounted without any problems to the trailer. 57802
Searching for 13 inch trailer tires rated load D range for my boat trailer. Became a problem finding with local dealers. No problem at etrailer. Ordering was very easy and shipping was prompt. Two tires in one box. First rate internet shopping. 365922
I have been maxing out the weight capacity of the tires every time I load the trailer and they have been performing well and look brand new still a year later. Very happy with the purchase. 529234
I already knew the tire brand (Kenda) was of good quality, and the service from etrailer.com was excellent! My experience here was as good as an online shopping experience could be. A year later, I'm still more than happy with my purchase. Thanks, George... 660167
Just returned from 2nd long road with about 3400 miles each. Also logged a few 300 mile trips. So far, holding up well. Run 50 psi. Tires are D rated. This is my 2nd set of 4(double axle). 1st set didn't quite go as far. Had sidewall failure on two of the four. Maybe bad batch. Would recommend due to steel belts and D rating. Original equip. was C rated and fiber glass belted. 647694
Trailer tires, unlike those used on passenger vehicles, should be kept at the maximum pressure indicated on the tire sidewall, which is 70 psi in this case. Failure to keep the tires fully inflated can lead to excessive heat build-up, which is the number one cause of premature tire failure.
--everything was perfect and fast shippin g. 729589
Tires perfect as expected. Received several emails to keep up with the progress. A phone number to contact. Called the phone got excellent customer service. Order received faster than expected. Excellent company values which are hard to find these days. I recommend trailer to anyone and this was not my first order. They’re excellent. 722029
Trailer tires are very good, shipping was speedy, great transaction. 719305
I was amazed at how fast the tires arrived. So was the tire shop that installed them for me. I was disappointed that the tires were over a year old. But, I didn't specify that criteria in my order. 674832
Wow! Ordered boat tires Monday received them and had them on boat trailer Thursday. Don't know yet about the tires but the service is super excellent. 672574

Very quick shipping, fair price. Time will tell how long they will last. Just what I needed. 651898
nice fit and rides better than last set. Really needed the Load range D. 649194
This was the only 13 inch tire I could find with a Load Range D rating. This was the original tire on my tent trailer. Awesome product. 644088
A huge thank you to you and your company I finally got the right oem tires 640103
Great tires great price. Better load rating than my old tires. 638103
The tires came before I was expecting them. But them on a pontoon boat trailer, it is a heavy boat, these tires held it up very well. They are higher load range than what came out on it, I have found, money spent on a better tier is never money waisted. Thank you for your help with this. Larry Easterling Blue Springs Mississippi 608265
Great tire and I got it very quick and it was just what I ordered. 601601

Ordered from e trailer in the past . Great service and a good product. Couldn't find a 13 inch load range D tire from any US tire maker, bought 4 tires and their doing very well. 528892
Load range D tires were NEEDED on boat trailer to handle the weight. (Load range C tires were at the limit). Tires have performed extraordinarily. Thanks for the great service. 527238
These tires solved my boat tire wearing problems. I couldn't buy D rated tires locally. These tires are D rated and they are not showing an wearing problems. 526426
Bought several tires from the now and never have had an issue. Good delivery and product is always as it should be. Prices are good. 517021
Great Tires, Great Service, Quick shipping! Saved my camping trip! 516809
I have not installed the tires and rims yet. I’m sure they will be excellent, as it was dealing with the staff at ETRAILER My original order was on backorder. When the combined tire and rim didn’t appear to ever arrive, the staff at ETRAILER solved my problem. They shipped me the rim and tire separately and arrive in five days. They met my dateline to allow me to go on my motorcycle trip. I could not be more pleased. Outstanding customer service. Will send picture at later date, once installed. 500609
13" load range D tires are not easy to buy locally, glad etrailer.com was easy and with fast shipping I had my tires, perfect! 498032
Trailer tires have performed to satisfaction. Price is reasonable and free shipping made ordering a done deal for me. I have ordered several items over the past few years and found all items to be satisfactory and met my needs and demands fully. I am definitely a satisfied customer and advise everyone to shop etrailer. 485095
Great radial tire for your tow dolly. Smooth when empty towing. Great wear as well. Very happy after a year of ownership. 477601
Shipping was great very fast not sure on the tires as we haven't put them on but am sure there fine as we have used this brand before. 475701
Product fits as described - priced competitively - order processing and delivery time Excellent! 468197
After searching numerous tire dealers , no one had the product I wanted, A friend of mine suggested etrailer.com, I contacted them, and they had the tire I needed, I ordered them and the tires were on my doorstep in Two Days, As far as the tires themselves, they were for my boat trailer and I have not had a chance to use them as of this date, But for anyone out there looking for tires I strongly suggest contacting etrailer.com first. Thanks Again !! J.K. Joyce 458887
WOW great service,fast shipping even when I didn't ask for it. The tires I bought is for my boat trailer. I am very happy. I had a local service station mount them for twenty five dollars for two. Will spread the word about etrailer 456367
