Radial Tires vs. Bias Tires
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.

Great quality product. Fast shipping!
by: Tom S. Buckskin Rider09/15/2020
I received my tires very soon after placing my order. I ordered these tires as a replacement to what came on my horse trailer. I had put two of the same tires on the trailer the year before. I liked the cost and the quality of the tire. So I decided to replace the other two tires with the same, so as to have the same tires all around on the trailer. I bought them with the mindset to keep everything alike. I am more at ease when pulling the trailer knowing that I have maintained my trailer as well as keeping good tires on it as well. Too many times have I seen people on the side of the road with a blown out tire on a trailer. No problem right? I've even seen trailers unhooked sitting on the side of the road, what would I do with three horses if it were me? Certainly not leave them on the side of the road. I prefer to prevent an emergency then to cause one. Take care of your equipment and it will take care of you. These tires and E-Trailer have allowed me to do so in an affordable manner. Thanks for checking in on me!

I bought a set of four of these tires & wheels over a period of time. Each one of the tires developed a bulge & have been replaced with a better quality of tire. The wheels are still in use.
by: timt04/09/2016
Still looking great. Went to Alaska and back as spair tires. Just getting ready to put
them on the trailer. I have purchased the other two so now the test begins. I ran the last pair 30+ thousand miles and still look good but time to change. Have great load capacity for my big 5th wheel. Thanks

Great company! Excellent inventory, in stock, delivered quickly, and showed up as advertised. Rare combo right now. Great job.

Review from a similar Karrier Radial in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Unfortunately these only lasted 2 years and less than 8,000 miles before the belts "slipped" and the tires ballooned and got tall and round. I pull a 10k GVWR two-axle toy hauler weighed at 7800 lbs on the axles. These survived two 2600 mile trips and a few shorter trips at up to 65 mph. 3 of 4 tires ballooned and I replaced them before they blew. I filed a Kenda warranty claim and they denied that they could see anything wrong in the pictures. etrailer said Kenda handles warranty claims for these.
Comments
Kenda does indeed hold a 5-year limited warranty on these tires. It seems that our customer service department is in the process of getting that warranty claim issued for you.

Review from a similar Karrier Radial in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Tire was back ordered, I waited, not needed right away. New tire has a date code of 5/21, 14 months old already. Also ordered a halogen light. The box was 2.5 times too big. Halogen light was unwrapped and unprotected in the box. I hope it works. Big fail on this one!
Comments
I am so sorry that this happened to you! Was your light damaged in any way?
-- Sierra K - 07/15/2022Light was scratched, and cover had rubber marks on it from the tire. I was replacing an identical light. My old cover was fine, so I used what I had. I made it work.

Review from a similar Karrier Radial in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Tire order was delivered on time with all accessories. I put 75psi in the Kenda Kendra ST205 75R Class D tires and installed on my McClain tandem axel trailer. Perfect match for the trailer. Perhaps i will write a review after a year of fishing. I normally travel 5k miles a year fishing from Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Florida.

Review from a similar Karrier Radial in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Ordered 5/26 with a promise of delivery 6/3 .. tires were delivered 5/28 .. $10 less than my local dealer if he could even get this model .. he is a Kenda dealer, he did relate Kenda trailer tires are the best out there. etrailer is the best.
Comments
Been on over a year still looking like new. Tread wear is excellent, no indications of any stress on sidewalls, no cupping or any othe indication of uneven wear. Thoroughly satisfied. Would buy again, but given how they are wearing it may be a few years.

Review from a similar Karrier Radial in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Delivery was fast and wheels were individually boxed in heavy shipping cartons. Rims and tires were perfectly mounted and were blemish free.
The styling and quality of the rims are outstanding, as are the 8 ply tires. Huge improvement in appearance and load handling over the galvanized rims and 6 ply tires.
The customer service at etrailer is the best I've experienced in a long time. You can buy from etrailer with confidence.

- Trailer Tire Recomendation For Replacing a 7.50-16LT Light Truck Tire on a Dump TrailerThe Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E, item # AM10295, is the closest tire to the 7.50-16LT tire that we have. Your tire has an overall height of 31.8 inches and a section width of 8.4 inches. The # AM10295, tire has and overall height of 31.61 inches and a section width of 9.37 inches. You will be alright on height but you will need to check your dump trailer to be sure that the 1 inch or so greater width will work. Load range needs to be considered also. The E...
view full answer... - Should Trailer Tires be Inflated Cold or HotActually, when you inflate tires you should always inflate them cold. Since your trailer has sat for several months be sure to inspect the tires for signs of dry rotting. I have linked our help article on trailer tires for you.
view full answer... - What Size Rims Does the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10295 FitAs long as your trailer has a 16 inch diameter wheel on that is between 6 and 7-1/2 inches wide the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10295 would work well as a replacement tire.
view full answer... - 5th Wheel Tire Recommendation to Replace a ST235/80R16 with Higher CapacityYes, the tire size ST235/85-16 will work well as a replacement for your ST235/80R16. Both of these tire sizes are designed to fit the exact same rim sizes. Only difference is the new tires will be a little over 1/2 an inch taller. The part # AM10295 that you referenced has a 3,640 lbs at 95 psi capacity. Special trailer tires should be inflated to their maximum air pressure. If a trailer tire is inflated to a lower air pressure than the maximum, the amount of weight that the tire can carry...
view full answer... - Can a Boat Trailer Use a Mix of Bias Ply and Radial TiresYou will need to keep the tire type the same for all wheels on a trailer. The reason for this is that bias ply and radial tires do not track the same so you would end up with uneven tire wear and it can also lead to suspension issues in more extreme cases. And radial tires run cooler than bias ply so using the two together could cause issues leading to overheating the one side. In the short term, like if you had a flat on the trailer and only had the opposite tire style, you would be fine...
view full answer... - Can a 235/80/16 Trailer Tire be Replaced with a 235/85/16You should have no problem replacing a 235/80/16 with a 235/85/16. The only difference will be that the 235/85 will be a little bit over half an inch taller in overall diameter (.7 to be exact). Both tire sizes fit the same rim sizes. The part # AM10295 that you referenced would be a great choice for this. I attached a review video for this product for you to check out as well.

This information can be found on a sticker or plate on the trailer frame. If you were to go down to tire size 225/75-15 (there is no 235/75-16 trailer tire size), you would only have a weight capacity of 2,830 lbs. Unfortunately changing your tire size is not going to solve your clearance problem. Your best bet is to take the trailer to a qualified mechanic and have him check out your trailer's...

It is not recommended to run a trailer tire at a higher speed than 65 miles per hour due to the heat buildup that will occur inside the tire and cause the tire to break down and could cause the tire to fail. Special Trailer, (ST) tires should be inflated to the maximum air pressure that is stamped on the sidewall of the tire. It will be...

The sidewall is two ply polyester. Steel in the sidewall is not used in many trailer tire sizes. It is mostly used in the sidewall of tires for heavy duty commercial truck applications that are more susceptible to damage to the sidewall, because of the conditions they will be used in.

view full answer... - What is Causing Abnormal Trailer Tire Wear on a Trailer with a New AxleIf your trailer tires are getting flat spots on them then that is an indication of an improper axle alignment and/or worn suspension. To check if the axle is the culprit measure from the center of the coupler to the center of the wheel on one side then do the same for the other side. Be sure to measure from the same spot on the coupler. The measurements should be nearly exact. Even if only slightly off that can have a negative impact on tire wear. Worn suspension components can cause similar...

Both an LT 235/60-16 and ST235/80-16 tire will have the same width, 9-1/4 inches so clearance between the tire and springs is not going to be a concern. But the ST235/80-16 is going to be about 3.7 inches taller. You will need to have over 1.85 inches of clearance above the existing tires to go to the ST235/80-16, # AM10248.

view full answer... - Replacement Tires for an Airplane Tow Tractor that Uses 7.00x16LT TiresWe do not have any 7.00-16 tires but we do have 7.5-16 which I have linked for you. These tires are going to be 8.4 inches wide. This will be 0.6 inches wider than the tires you have now. If there is space between the side of the tire and the tow tractor then you could use this size. An ST235/85R16 tire would be much wider at about 9-1/4 inches.
view full answer... - Can ST235/85R16 Tires be Used in Place of LT235/85R16 Tires on a Horse TrailerHow are the tires wearing? Inside tread, outside tread, center tread? That could indicate other problems. If the trailer is not being towed level that could also be a factor. The air suspension on the truck wouldn't be a factor especially if the trailer is being towed level. An LT tire indicates a light truck tire. ST stands for special trailer. You can use ST tires on your horse trailer. Trailer tire # AM10295 is an ST235/85R16 rated for 3,640 pounds at 95 psi. I have included a link...
view full answer... - Can Trailer Tires be Plugged or PatchedI have a co-worker who has patched or plugged trailer tires before without any issues. If the hole is on the sidewall or corner between the tread and sidewall you would not be able to patch it. Patching or plugging a trailer tire is a temporary solution though and the tire should be replaced as soon as you are able to do so.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Premature Trailer Tire FailureThree things typically cause premature trailer tire failure. Exceeding the capacity for the tire, under inflating the tire, and exceeding the speed limit for the tire. You should also make sure the load rating of the tire matches the load rating of the trailer axle. If you are exceeding the weight capacity for the tire with the weight of your tire it will fair prematurely. The pressure ran in the tires makes a big difference in longevity too. ST tires should be ran with the full pressure...
view full answer... - Trailer Tire Pressure Rating and Factors that Cause Tire FailureSpecial trailer tires should be inflated to their maximum air pressure. The value for the maximum air pressure should be listed along with the value for the maximum load on the tire's sidewall. These values will usually designate the maximum load at a maximum psi. For example, if the tire is rated at 1,610 lbs maximum at 65 psi, the tire can carry 1,610 lbs of weight if the air pressure is at the maximum of 65 psi. At the maximum air pressure, the tires will perform and wear best, and get...

view full answer... - What is the Difference Between Load Range and Ply Rating for a Trailer TireAny given tire size will have different load ranges available. The higher the load range, the higher the capacity and ply rating is. So an E load range will have a higher capacity and ply rating than a D load range tire of the same size. The ply rating is not the same as the amount of plies on the tire. The physical number of plies will be less than the ply rating. This is because the material and technology used to make the plies and tires has advanced to the point to where the ply rating...
view full answer... - What is Correct Tire Pressure for Trailer TiresThat really depends on the tire. What you need to do is check the sidewall for the max PSI rating. With trailer tires you want to run them at the max pressure all the time so that you ensure you get the full capacity as well as prevent heat build up. It's not like passenger vehicles where you inflate the tire below the max rating. I attached a FAQ article on trailer tires for you to check out as well.
