1-Year Worry-Free Guarantee
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.Bias Tires vs. Radial Tires
Bias ply tires are designed for off-road or agricultural applications. They are built with thick, durable nylon cords that are positioned at a 30- to 45-degree angle to the direction of travel. The layers alternate in a crisscross pattern, making the sidewalls stiffer so that the entire tire is able to flex easily. As a result, the tire provides a smooth ride and improved handling when trailering on uneven surfaces.

My tires came folded in half ruining the integrity and shape of the tire, unhappy to say the least.

Best trailer tire on the market in my opinion. I installed these tires on my ATV trailer about a year ago and I see no signs of wear yet.
Comments
Awesome, no visible wear yet, several thousand miles on them.
Robert - 07/27/2022by: Rich09/30/2022
Tires appear to be misshapen, maybe do to being compressed in shipping from China. Hopefully they'll mount with no problem and take on normal shape when fully inflated. There should be an explanation for this included with the product to assure customer that the tires are not defective as they appear to be. Great service though, tires arrived a day early.
Comments
The deformation you mention occurs when bias-ply tires are palletized after manufacture. The tires will mount just fine and take the proper shape.

I ordered 2 of the same size tire however 1 came in wrong size. Company created a return shipping label but I had to carry via car to the shipping store nearby…tires are heavy to handle… Other than that good service.

Used on my vintage camper for several camping trips. After a year tires still show very little wear.
by: Jamie05/06/2022
This company has exceeded my expectations. I chose them because of the reviews I read online. They lived up to the reviews. I received my tires on the delivery date and the boxes weren't damaged. We put them on the rims today and everything seems to be good. I received a personal email with my order number confirming I received my order and if I needed any assistance, their number was listed in the email to call them!!!! Definitely will use them again!

I own a camp trailer that was manufactured with the above listed tire, yet I was unable to find this same replacement tire at a reasonable price locally. I called every tire dealer that I knew in the local Albany N.Y. area, starting with local camper suppliers. Either they didn't have the tire or were charging what I considered to be an exorbitant amount. Some suppliers suggested I either buy tires with the rims or buy radial tires, of course I would have to buy a match set of two rather than one. As a last resort, I went on line searching for trailer tires and found etrailer.com. I called and Debora H. answered and handled my every question, completed my order and assured me all was right with the world. She promptly gave me an order number and an estimated delivery date. This employee treated me like I was her only customer for the day and I give her much thanks for her assistance. The delivery arrived a full day ahead of her estimated arrival and I had the ability to follow my shipment from their door to mine...how comforting to know their is a company of this caliber! I will continue to support this outfit whenever I can. As soon as I signed for the delivery with the UPS driver, I received an email from Patrick B. to ascertain if all went well with the shipment and if I was satisfied...once again, how can you not like to deal with folks like this? I have not used the trailer on the road, but I assure you, based on the original tires, I see no reason why I wouldn't be happy. I will agree with others that have commented on these tires...Keep the tires inflated to the camper and tire specs and check them regularly to obtain maximum wear. Thank to all at etrailer.com!
Comments
This tire has operated exactly as expected with no maintenance except checking tire pressure before every use. I would buy another set of these tires when or if these wear out! Thanks again Etrailer and those employees associated with my purchase.
Walt S - 12/28/2014by: Mattison05/10/2020
Very pleased with the quality of tires I ordered. Packaged in strut day cardboard box with hole cutout for easy grip and handling.
by: John03/23/2022
Tires came completly flatten . I think this is done by manufacture for shipping. dont freak out! Pull tires apart with your hands and they pop into shape. they mount and seal to rim nicely. etrailer has great prices and service. Will use again.
by: Stephen05/25/2022
At first glance tires look great. Especially like how they shipped, in a box very easy to mount, not banded together collapsed sidewalls making it a chore to seat the beads.
by: David 09/25/2022
Excellent tires, great deal and free shipping. These tires performed very well on our last three trips...I trust them.

Great price on the boat trailer tire I needed. I wanted to match exactly with what I was already using. I bought 3 tires, got free shipping and they arrived in a couple of days.
Comments
About a year in, the tires are holding up fine. Not many miles on them, but they have stayed true and round, no hop or balance issues, tread wear is minimal

Service from Etrailer is excellent: courteous, efficient, and shipping was immediate.
I use the Loadstar ST205/75D14 tire on a tandem axle open trailer. I think the tire performs well and is very reliable, but these tires do seem to wear quickly.
Comments
ST or Special Trailer tires are built differently than tires for cars or trucks. If they are not kept at their full inflation pressure, their weight capacity s as pressure s and they will wear more quickly.Check the total weight of your trailer and make sure you are not over the weight capacity of the tires, or even really close to it. If so, you may want to look at going up to a load range D tire or keeping a closer eye on tire pressures.
-- Patrick B - 04/06/2013by: James 10/06/2021
I received my tires and the date code shows they are only 4 months old. That is good. Thank you
by: Kurt 06/30/2021
I had the tires mounted last year, but I haven't moved the trailer since then. Nothing to report. They are holding air so far so good
by: Johnny B03/30/2019
The first tire delivered was misshapen but eTrailer took care of the exchange instantly with both deliveries in warp time. Customer service was better than great.

Took a bit to mount it but its been a year and its performed beautifully

Ordered new wheel and tire for my tow dolly to use as spare. Retrieved info from Etrailer web site, placed the order, received confirmation and later same day got shipping info and confirmation. Next day got tracking and delivery info from UPS on delivery date and 4 days later package was on my door step. Thanks Etrailer for the for the great pricing, quick handling and free shipping, Not the first time I’ve used your site and won’t be the last. Thanks for the follow up, 100% satisfied.
by: Lars L09/17/2019
My trailer came with the Loadstar tires and they were excellent for over 20,000 miles. I chose to replace them because we travel on long trips and I didn't want to risk a tire mishap while traveling. They had several thousand miles left on them when I swapped them out.
The new tires now have over 8600 miles on them and have been excellent also; I'll likely buy another set after these wear out. They are quiet, ride smooth, keep their pressures, and wear well. I've had no problems whatsoever.

- Can a Trailer with 14 Inch Tires and Wheels Be Upgraded to 15 Inch Trailer Tires and WheelsAs long as the bolt pattern is the same and you have enough room all around the existing tires for the larger size then yes, you can go to a 15 inch wheel and tire. There are a couple other things you will want to look at though. If the wheels attach to your hubs using wheel bolts and not lug nuts then the center pilot hole of the new wheels as to be exactly the same as the old wheels. Otherwise the wheel will not center on the hub. If the wheel does use lug nuts then the pilot hole of...
view full answer... - Can a P175/65-14 Tire Size be Used on a TrailerThe tire in your picture is a passenger vehicle tire and should not be used on any type of trailer. Trailer tires will start with ST which stands for special trailer. Trailer tires are made with a thicker sidewall than passenger vehicle tires. This is because they handle more vertical load. Trailer tires also must be inflated to the maximum psi as indicated on the tire. If under inflated the thicker sidewall generates excessive heat and can cause the tire to fail. I have included a link...

- What is the Height Difference Between a 175/65-14 Tire and a 185/65-14 TireWell first, neither of those are common trailer tire sizes. Though they could be light truck tires which are sometimes used on trailer applications. Anyway for 175/65-14 the section width is 6.895 inches and the diameter or height is 22.96 inches. A 185/65-14 is 7.289 inches wide and 23.47 inches tall. So it is just over half an inch taller. I have also included a link to the right to an FAQ article that explains how to determine tire diameter for you.
view full answer... - Can ST205/75R14 Load Range C Trailer Tires be Replaced with ST205/65R14 Load Range D Trailer TiresYes, you can replace ST205/75R14 LRC tires with ST205/65R14 LRD tires. The difference is that LRC stands for load range C and has a capacity of 1,760 lbs at 50 psi. The LRD stands for load range D and has a capacity of 2,100 lbs at 65 psi. Please note that going to a higher capacity tire does not allow the trailer to carry more weight.
view full answer... - Replacement Tires for Tandem Axle Camper Using H 78-ST15The HT78-ST15 is an older tire size designation. Stated in modern terms, the size would be ST225/75-15. You can see our selection of tires and wheel/tire combos in that particular size by clicking the provided link. I would recommend going with a radial tire, for better performance and longer life. This tire is available in three load ranges, C-2150 lbs, D-2540 lbs or E-2830 lbs. To determine the load range you need, determine the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, GVWR (should be listed on...
view full answer... - Can a Bias Ply Trailer Tire be Used in Place of a Radial Trailer TireThe R in the original tire size indicates a radial tire. The D in the new tire size indicates it is a bias ply tire. Radial tires usually cost more than bias ply tires but you can use either one provided that it is the right size, which in this case it is, and the capacity is enough for the gross trailer weight. So yest, it is safe. Radial tires do track better and run cooler than bias ply tires. But bias ply tires are better for rough terrain. You just want to make sure that all of the...
view full answer... - Are Radial or Bias Ply Tires Better on a Trailer With 3 AxlesIf the option is available I would recommend a radial tire over the bias tire because the radial tire will provide better stability and more ground contact resulting in a more comfortable ride. A radial tire is going to have better tread wear over the bias ply tire, but when your front axle drags during tight turns it will still take a toll on the tires. Some times drag cannot be prevented, but the best thing to help with this issue is be sure you are towing your trailer as level as possible....
view full answer... - What is the Speed Rating on a Loadstar ST205/75D14 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST86The trailer tires we carry, like # AM1ST86, are rated for 65 miles per hour. The only exception is if the sidewall on a tire states differently which on this tire it should not. Another tip I can offer is that trailer tires should be inflated to the maximum psi as indicated on the tire for the longest life and best performance. On this trailer tire it is rated for 1,760 pounds at 50 psi. I have included a link to our FAQ article on tires.
view full answer... - Meaning of F78-14 Designation on Kenda Loadstar ST205/75-14 # AM1ST86 TireThe F78-14 shown on the ST205/75-14 # AM1ST86 tire you referenced designates the old tire size for that tire. The alpha numeric tire sizing was common in the 1960s and early to mid 1970s. A few of the tire companies still show the older tire sizes to help folks cross-reference when they are replacing old tires.

It is specifically designed for routine use on a trailer and is not intended for use on other vehicles. This bias trailer tire is built with the stiff sidewall needed to support its Load Range C weight rating. It can carry a maximum load of 1760 lbs at 50 psi inflation pressure, making a set of these suitable for use on a 3000-lb-rated trailer axle. I have included a link to a helpful article...

- What is the Difference Between Trailer Tire Size ST205/65D14 and Size F65-14STThe F65-14ST trailer tire is a comparable size to the ST205/65-14 size. However we do not carry either tire size at this time. The closest tire size we have is the ST205/75-14, like the item you selected, Loadstar ST205/75D14 Bias Trailer Tire, # AM1ST86. The ST205/65-14 tire has an overall height of 24.49 inches and a width of 8.07 inches. The overall height of a the Loadstar # AM1ST86 measures 26.1 inches, and the overall width is 8.07 inches.

view full answer... - How Wide Will a 175/65-14 Tire Be and Will it Fit on a 6 Inch Wide WheelA 175/65-14 is not a trailer tire size, it is a passenger vehicle tire size. Passenger vehicles should not be used on trailers because they are constructed differently than trailer tires. Trailer tires are built with a thicker sidewall to handle more vertical load. A 175 tire will be approximately 6.895 inches wide but they only fit on 4-1/2 to 5-1/2 inch wide wheels. To be clear, the width is measured where the tire sits on the wheel, not the overall width. If that width was 6 inches...

In order to pick out the correct wheels and tires you will need to first determine the bolt pattern of the hubs so that you can pick out wheels that will fit it. I attached a help article that details how to determine the bolt pattern of a wheel.

view full answer... - Why do My New Radial Trailer Tires Look so much Taller than the Old Bias Ply TiresThe ST205/75D14 and ST205/75R14 should be essentially the same size. There are differences between tire brands and to a lesser degree between bias and radial. Normally the bias ply tire will look taller because of the difference in construction from the radial tire. If you have had the ST205/75R14 tire mounted yet, the tire will look much taller until it is seated on a properly sized wheel. I recommend using tires of the same height and construction, radial or bias on both sides of the...

What you would need to do is take some measurements for the correct replacement tire. The height of your ST205/65-14 tire has an overall height of 24.49 inches and a width of 8.07 inches.

But the sizes you list don't quite add up. It sounds like you have a 14.5 inch wheel that you installed a tire designed for a 13 inch wheel, which would not be possible Did you get the size from the lettering on the sidewall of the trailer?

- How to Measure the Diameter and Width of a Trailer Wheel to Pick the Right TiresFirst I would need to know how you are measuring the wheels. When measuring a wheel you do not measure the overall diameter. I have included a link to a video to the right and in the video our tire and wheel expert shows how to measure. The only reason I bring this up is because 14-1/2 inch wheels are not common. If it happens to be a 14-1/2 we will not have any tires for that size. You would need to replace the wheels and the tires. To replace the wheels I would need to know the bolt...

This is the closest tire we have similar to that. We have several trailer tires available in ST205/65-14 for you to choose from.They are available in C, D, and B load ranges with both bias and radial ply options. For a bias ply tire, I recommend the Loadstar ST205/75D14 Bias Trailer Tire part # AM1ST86. I have attached a link to all of our ST205/75-14 trailer tires and wheel/tire...
view full answer... - Weight Capacity of Axle Based on Spindle DimensionsI can give you a pretty good idea based on the dimensions of the spindle. Based on the dimensions you listed you have an 84 spindle which would mean you have between a 2,000 and 3,500 lb axle. If the hub is a 6 lug hub then it would be 3,500 most likely. Otherwise if 5 lug then it could fall anywhere between 2,000 and 3,500. I attached a link to a page that has all of the hubs we offer that would fit your spindle.
view full answer... - Should All Tires on Trailer Have Same Load RatingThe two tires sizes you mentioned are the same. The R indicates that the tire is a radial, the D in the other tire size indicates that it's a load range D tire. You'll want to make sure that all 4 tires are the same size, construction and load range. If you click the provided link, you can see our trailer tire FAQ article.

You want to make sure you have 3-inches or more clearance from the tire to the fender or wheel well for deflection. I have attached a helpful article that explains how to measure the wheel bolt pattern. I have attached links to our product pages for the 13 and 14 inch tire/wheel combos you...

Strictly speaking, this means that those fewer rotations of the wheel could mean a VERY small potential change in the operating temperature of the bearings. This tiny potential temperature difference is not something to concern yourself over. So long as you maintain a suitable grease level in your hubs there would not be any real benefit from moving to the larger wheel. You may care to have a...
