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.
This aluminum wheel comes with steel inserts in the lug nut wells. The inserts are pressed into the aluminum, and they help prevent the holes from wearing down over time. This ensures that the wheel stays secured to your trailer hub and that you won't have to constantly retorque the lug nuts.
The standard tread on these tires has solid, continuous ribs, and it has very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. These tires are designed for use on trailers, so they don't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.
Contender radials have double polyester cords and double steel belts. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation.
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.

Speaker 1: Today we're going to take a look at the Contender ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire in a Load Range C, on this 15 inch black Machine Viking Aluminum Wheel, with the five on four and a half inch bolt pattern. Now this inaudible 00:00:15 ideal for RVs, campers, and trailers. The wheel is a nice aluminum wheel. It's durable, light weight, and rust proof. This wheel is a viking series Valhalla design. It's in a black five spoke with a machine face on the front of the spokes.
Provides a nice bold, sleek look.And what they do is the front and the back of the wheel all have a nice protective clear coating on it. Now on this wheel, they do use the steel inserts around the lug holes here to keep the wheel securely in place on your trailer hub. This prevents the holes from wearing down. Eliminates the need for constant re tightening of your lug nuts.The tire that's on this is a radial tire. It's constructed with double steel belts, double polyester cords.
It's great for highway use. They do use a nylon tread firming belt overlay around the tire to help prevent tread separation. And they do give you the tread depth bars in the tread grooves like you'll see on your passenger car tires that give you a quick visual indication of the tread wear.Now the tire is a special trailer tire design. It couples the strength of a bias tire with the durability and stability of a radial tire. It is created specifically for trailers.
Not intended for use on any other vehicles. Now this whole tire wheel assembly does come with a two year platinum plus warranty which includes complimentary roadside assistance. Basically if your trailer has a flat tire, you can call their help line and a technician will come change out the flat tire with the existing inflated spare tire. And this service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.If you notice, this does come with a nice center cap, it's all included. Nice shiny cap and you just go ...
you put it in through the rear and then put the wheel on. Have a nice look to it.This tire and wheel assembly does meet the DOT, Department of Transportation, specifications and the SAE standards.A few specs on this, the diameter on the wheel. The diameter will always be measured inside to inside or bead seat to bead seat. So on this one it's a 15 inch diameter. The width on just the wheel is five inches wide. Bolt pattern on this wheel is a five on four and a half inch bolt pattern. And if you want to measure that on a wheel that's an odd number of lugs, in this case five lugs, you just pick one of the holes. Let's say this one. And you'll measure to either one of these holes right across from it. But when you measure it, it's from the center of the starting hole to the furthest edge of the hole that you measure to. So when you do that on this wheel it'll measure five on four and a half inches. This does use a wheel lug size of a half inch by 20.Weight capacity on just the wheel is 2150 pounds. And the pilot hole diameter, that's this large hole here in the center, goes over the hub on your trailer, diameter of that opening is 3.19 inches. The tire size, which will be stamped on the sidewall. ST, for special trailer, 205/75R15. The R stands for radial design tire. Section width on this is going to be eight inches. Overall diameter from the bottom to the very top when it's inflated is 27.1. This tire is a load range C, which means it's a six ply rated tire. It has a maximum load capacity of 1820 pounds at 50 PSI.And the last thing I do want to mention is most all the new trailer tires are coming through with a speed rating on them. And when they speed rate a tire, they actually physically designate it with a letter designation. So on this one where it's at is if you'll look right after the size we just went over, right down here it'll say speed rating. Up to 81 miles per hour. It's a letter M. Speed rating M will be 81 miles per hour.But that should do it for the review on the Contender ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire in a Load Range C, on this 15 inch black Machine Viking Aluminum Wheel, with the five on four and a half inch bolt pattern.

Complimentary roadside assistance included.I ordered 4 of these tires and rims for my enclosed trailer from etrailer, I received them in 2 days and am very pleased with the quality and look of these on my trailer. They arrived UPS with each tire wheel combo individually packed in a box so there was no chance of scratching the wheels. I have purchased many items from etrailer and have always had good lick with them. 756636
