Specs:
This tire has a 1-year worry-free guarantee. If within the first 12 months the tire is damaged in any way, it will be replaced at no charge.
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.

Thanks again for another successful purchase.
Duane - 04/26/2021We have used these tires for 8 years (3 sets) for our heavier than normal hard side pop-up camper trailer. Most of our miles are on gravel roads and these tires have stood the test. etrailer has always been top notch to work with and ship on time.
Have to run a lot of air pressure with this tire, seems to bounce the trailer a little more when hitting bumps. Does track straight and easier to push trailer with boat back in garage.
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.
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.
Just received the order .had them mounted And balanced. Tech said needed very little weight to balance tires.sign of a quality product. Have not road tested yet but I believe they will be fine
Roger - 04/01/2021The 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 E - 02/26/2020This was my first time ordering from Etrailer ,I was pleasantly surprised because shortly after I placed my order they emailed me to let me know the tires were out of stock so they upgraded me for a better tire and lower price that was in stock .I received them the next day.
Good price for this tire and peace of mind using as a spare.
Excellent tires!!!!! I will buy these every time I need tires for the trailer I got them for.
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.
Some G - 05/21/2020I bought this tire to replace the spare on my trailer of 18 yrs. Also bought the wheels with the same tires, now my trailer looks like a newer model. THANKS ETRAILER!
Easy ordering. Fast delivery. Excellent tires. We are very pleased with these tires. It is a HUGE difference in how well and nice the trailer tows, rides, and tracks compared to the old tires! Huge peace of mind. Installed on a Fleetwood (Coleman) Sante Fe tent trailer. I would definitely purchase these tires from etrailer again.
Don - 07/08/2018My experience with etrailer was fantastic. The tires were received quickly and were in perfect shape. I have only put about 15 miles on them, so I can't really review the tires specifically at this point. I am hopeful that they will wear well and join me on many wonderful camping trips!
Tires have performed well so far
nice fit and rides better than last set. Really needed the Load range D.
William - 05/30/2020I 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.
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.
Joe T - 07/23/2018Just received the tires. Ordering and delivery were just as advertised...easy and quick (actually arrived a day early). Tire is as advertised but the final evaluation will be latter once mounted on our boat trailer.
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.
Car 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.

Patrick B - 6/10/2014 Jacques - 05/23/2015I 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.
I was pleased with the tires/rims, however, I did get one wheel/tire with a leaking valve stem that I had to take to a local shop for replacement. Other than that, I will definitely use etrailer.com for my next set of tires.
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.
Doug B - 11/14/2014Just 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.
Mike L - 05/30/2019None of the dealers in the area had or could get the ST 175/80R13 in a load range d. etrailer.com had the tire I was looking for.The price was bit high ,but the delivery time was fast and in order.put them on my 18 foot pontoon boat .I have only towed the boat 2 or 3 times.Handles good so far .
