• Correct load Range Tires for my 1993 Coleman Cedar Pop Up
  The dry weight of your 1993 Coleman Cedar Pop-Up camper is right at 1,000 lbs. You then have to add anything you've loaded into it to that number. Divide that in half and each tire should have a weight rating that is above that. The Kenda 5.70-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel Load Range B part # AM30100 for instance offers a 715 lb. per tire load limit for a total of 1430 lbs. capacity. If you have loaded more than 430 lbs. in the camper this is not sufficient. Going up to...

• Wheel and Tire # AM30100 Recommendation for a 1989 Karavan Trailer
  The Wheel and Tire part # AM30100 that you referenced has the same tire size and wheel bolt pattern as what you currently have so it should work well as an exact replacement. It has the capacity of 715 lbs at 50 psi. The thing about trailer tires is that they only have their max capacity when they are inflated to their max psi. So you would have to keep this tire inflated to 50 psi. The capacity for a trailer tire is meant as the capacity for just the single wheel/tire. If your trailer...

• Taller Tire Size Recommendation to Replace 4.80-8 Trailer Tire
  For a tire size that is 2 inches taller than your 4.80-8 tire size that will still fit your current rims you would want the 5.70-8 size tire like the part # AM10013 that has a capacity of 1,075 lbs at 100 psi. For a lower capacity tire that doesn't require nearly as much tire pressure we have the part # AM10010 which has a capacity of 715 lbs at 50 psi.

• Can Larger Tires and Wheels be Used on a Trailer with 5.70-8 Tires
  Different wheels can have different offsets but usually the offset is zero. The 5.70-8 is a little wider than a 5.30-12 so either the wheels did have an offset or the tires were rubbing on something else (like a fender) considering they are almost 4 inches taller than the original tires you had. If you go to a 12 inch then a 4.80-12 is more narrow and they fit the same wheels as a 5.30-12. So you could keep the wheels (if they don't have an offset) and just have 4.80-12 tires mounted...

• Is Trailer Wheel and Tire # AM30100 Balanced
  The tire and wheel combos we carry like # AM30100 are not machined balanced. You can have the tire and wheel combos balanced at a local tire shop if you wanted to. What our tire manufacturers will do is line up the light spot on the tire with the heavy spot on the wheel. This is a type of balancing but not like how car tires are balanced (with weights on a balancing machine).

• Replacement Size 5.70-8 Trailer Tires

If your trailer has a maximum weight capacity of 850 pounds, even if you'll be carrying less weight, with your size tire you will want to use a Load Range B tire. The Load Range B 5.70-8 size...

• Recommended Tire And Wheel Sizes To Change To For A Camper With 5.70-8 Tires
  When you say blowouts and attribute them to heat buildup, you are correct. The reason you have heat buildup in tires is not just because of the size, it will also be from overloading, damage to the tires and age. So to just change size first might not solve the problem. If the tires hit curbs a lot it would cause damage to the sidewalls and form a weak spot, which would allow the heat to buildup and go to the weakest spot in the tire and fail. Also any punctures or repairs to the tires...

• Does the Kenda K353 Bias Trailer Tire # AM10010 Have a Natural Tire Shape
  You are correct that the shape of the Kenda K353 Bias Trailer Tire # AM10010 isn't reflected 100% accurately in the video (attached) due to it not being mounted and properly inflated. Tires themselves cannot have an offset because it would change the entire way that the tire is constructed. The only time you will see an offset is with the wheel it is mounted on. If you check out the video for the Kenda 5.70-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel # AM30100 you can see that when the tire...

  We do offer pre-mounted combination wheel/tire products and also tires only in the 5.70-8 size you referenced.
