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.
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.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"
A good alternative to 20.5 x 8-10 tires

After looking around for a while in all local store for the right tires size for my trailer without any luck a friend send me the link to etrailer and after browsing their website for 2 minutes I found the tires I needed, I ordered them and received them within a week. Tires look exactly as shown on their website and the shipping was free ( purchase over XXX.00 I think. I highly recommend etrailer.

Just finished a harbor freight 4 x 8 trailer and turning it into a kayak trailer. Class B tires came with the trailer and I am immediately replacing them with the Kenda Class C 4.80 x 12" from etrailer.com. This gives me a higher speed tire and at least I can "feeL" safer at 65 mph or so if I have to speed a little to go around a car or on the Interstate. Very impressed with these tires and fast shipping received. Here is picture of trailer.
by: Jerry01/04/2023
The products were just as described. I installed them on a small utility trailer to gain ground clearance when 4 wheeling. I ordered them last Friday and they were shipped free within hours. I received them today (Wednesday), put them on and I couldn't be happier. Perfect fit. Would highly recommend.
by: Fm04/10/2014
I have more confidence and feel safer with the new tires (4.80-12) than the factory tires (4.80-8) installed on my 12 foot boat trailer. I feel that the trailer can be pulled at a higher speed without fear of a blow out which is necessary under certain driving conditions. Delivery of the new tires was super fast from etrailer. Thumbs up.
by: Norm C03/10/2014
Etrailer.com once again came through with good quality tires and rims for a better price than I could find locally. Also local stores only sell Load range B while these are Load Range C. And Free Shipping! Also Etrailer.com has a terrific website, loaded with information to help choose the correct tire/rim/accessories that will fit, no hassle. I bought these 12" tires to replace the 8" ones on a boat trailer. They look great and give me more clearance. All of my trailers use tires and rims from Etrailer. Thanks.

Great wheel and tire. I ordered 3 each, one for a spare.
1 box with one tire came yesterday, the other 2 came today.
I wish they would have came all at once since the tracking number was for the 1 wheel and I was not provided with the other tracking number I did not know if I was getting the whole shipment.
I used them on an old pop up trailer that I converted to haul my dirt bike
by: Kevin 07/28/2023
I just want to say that it’s just as cheap or cheaper to order these from etrailer as it is to order tires and have them mounted. And these are Kenda!
by: George 09/25/2023
Great upgrade from my little 8" wheels on my pop up camper. Ordered on Wednesday and it was delivered on Friday.

I ordered two tires for a trailer, and they were here in 2 days. High quality tires with rims at an affordable price. This is why I keep coming to eTrailer for all our trailer needs.

Very nice wheel and tire package. No vibration at speed and they look very nice on the trailer
by: Todd V01/14/2013
Outstanding! Excellent price, Same Brand wheel/Tire combo that I could by Locally, But with etrailer I got 3 for what 2 would cost me locally and I got load C instead of B. Shipping was fast, and free. I added a pic of these wheels mounted on my "work in progress" trailer. Also email updates were a nice personal touch!
by: steven04/21/2016
I bought these tires as a major upgrade from 8" to 12" tires on my 22 year old popup and have traveled cross country and back with a very smooth ride. It required adding another 3" of clearance for the larger tires, which also gave me more ground clearance. I buy all my trailer accessories from etrailer!
by: Carl08/03/2022
Rim and tire arrived within one week of ordering. Product was exactly as shown on web site and as ordered. It is installed on an older 4'X 8' open trailer of 2,000 lb capacity I use for hauling fire wood and kayaks. I have not used the trailer since installing the new wheel so cannot comment on the tire performance, but from my inspection it appears ideal for the intended use.
by: Jeff 03/02/2023
I never had a spare tire for my trailer and this will be on the side lines till needed. The rim looks great and the tire is mounted well.
by: Leon 07/22/2023
Great customer service and unbeatable prices! Don’t bother searching for a better product and price.
by: Chuck 08/18/2022
They are holding up well.
A week after getting them I drove from Pennsylvania to Las Vegas and back with my little trailer behind me. I was glad to have gotten good new tires.
by: Rene R08/16/2013
Very impressed with the wear thus far of this tire. Driven 1300 miles already and it still looks great. Handled up to 65 mph. No problems.

Bought this as a spare for a small boat trailer. Turns out, I needed it after a few months and I was glad to have it. Fits and travels well. Summer youth sailing starts this week and we'll be putting a lot of miles on this wheel.
by: Les I.08/22/2013
I replaced a set of 4.80 x8 tires and wheels, It raised the trailer about 4". There was enought space between the the tires and fender with out repostioning the fenders. Oonly miles will tell now on the tire quality. Center hole was slighty larger but still lines the holes up easy.

Wheels fit and look good. The rubber on my tires is wearing rather quickly. I put the boat over the scales my last camping trip. It only had 850 lbs on the trailer axle.le. That is about normal, however my tires will e worn out in under 800 miles.
by: TomL11/15/2017
After one year, these tires and wheels have exceeded my expectations. They raised the height of my trailer from the old 8" wheels, and gave it a more stable feel when towing. They ride nice on back roads or on the highway.
I can highly recommend these for your trailer tire needs.

Still smooth riding on new wheels. Dozens of trips both local and highway and still solid performance after a year. Worth every penny.

See what our Experts say about this Kenda Trailer Tires and Wheels
- Troubleshooting Trailer that is Continuously ShakingMost trailer hubs are lug centric and the wheels will be centered by the lugs. If you do have hub centric hubs you will need the pilot hole to be exactly the correct diameter to fit onto the hub. If it's hub centric it will likely use bolts instead of studs with lug nuts. Some wheel manufacturers do make rings that will fit on the rim to make the pilot hole a specific size if you need it to be hub centric. These rings will be made specifically for the particular wheel and I don't think...
view full answer... - If Trailer Sticker and Tire Sidewall List Two Different PSI Rating Which to Go ByYes, tire manufacturer spec would be the proper PSI to use for your current tires. The list on the trailer itself is for what the trailer came with but it's very common for people to go with a different tire so at that point it would no longer be relevant.
view full answer... - What is the Recommended PSI for a Vintage Tire Size 5.60-12A 5.60-12 tire is a vintage automotive tire size that we do not have much information about. According to my research, it looks like a load range C, or 6-ply, tire would have a recommended maximum psi of 36. I also found that the load range B (4-ply) tires were more common in that size and they had a maximum psi of 30.
view full answer... - Does Replacement Trailer Wheel Need to Have Matching Pilot Hole Diameter It sounds like you have lug-centric wheels which is the most common setup on trailers. With this type of wheel you don't need to worry about matching the pilot hole diameter when replacing it, as the wheel is secured and centered by the lug nuts. With this in mind you can indeed use new wheels that feature a 2.80 inch pilot hole diameter. If you can tell me what size wheels you have I will be happy to make a specific recommendation. I have also attached a link that will take you to our...
view full answer... - Replacement Wheel and Tire Recommendation for Starcraft Pop Up 1701We've had previous customers with a Starcraft 1701 pop up like yours tell us that their tire size was 4.80-12 mounted on a wheel with a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern. If that's what you have then you'd want the # AM30620 which matches both the tire size and wheel bolt pattern. I'd recommend verifying this by checking the tire size that's printed on the sidewall of the tire and then also determining the bolt pattern. If you have something else let me know and I'll pick you out the best choice...
view full answer... - Does Speed Affect Tire Wear on a Trailer TireThe speed will not have much if any effect on tire wear provided that you stay within the 65 mph the tire is rated for. The big things that effect tire wear are going to be load, alignment, and air pressure. Always make sure that trailer tires are inflated to the max psi rating as indicated on the tire for longest life and best performance. I have included a link to our tire FAQ article for you.
view full answer... - Can 4.80-12 Trailer Tires be Used in Place of 4.80-8 Trailer TiresBasically you are correct. If the wheel attaches to the hub using lug nuts then the pilot hole of the wheel can be larger but not smaller than the hub where the wheel sits. If the wheel attaches to the hub using bolts then the pilot hole has to be exact. A 12 inch tire is going to have less revolutions so it would not take as much wear as an 8 inch tire. But 200 or so miles would not necessitate going to a larger size. So in other words you would be fine sticking with the 8 inch tires....
view full answer... - What Causes Abnormal Tire Wear on One Tire on a Tandem Axle TrailerTypically when only one tire on a trailer wears out on a tandem axle trailer the problem is axle alignment. That would be the first place I would start. Other possible issues are damaged rim, damaged or worn suspension components, bent axle, bad wheel bearings, one brake assembly locking up when stopping and/or axle overloading.
view full answer... - Pilot Diameter of the Kenda 4.80-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" White Wheel # AM30620The pilot diameter of the wheel of the Kenda 4.80-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" White Wheel # AM30620 that you referenced is 2.84. I went out into our warehouse and found that the measurement was 2.84. So if you were to order hub rings you would want to use 2.84 as the correct measurement.
view full answer... - Does it Matter If New Camper Wheels have Larger Center Diameter than Older WheelsIf your trailer hubs secure the wheels with lug nuts then it's okay if the pilot diameter (wheel center hole) is larger than needed as the lug nuts are what center the wheels to the hub. If the hub uses bolts instead to secure the wheel then it is important that the wheel center hole matches perfectly as it's what centers the wheel to the hub. Most Coleman campers are going to use lug-centric setups based on our experiences but it is possible you have something different going on.
view full answer... - Does Kenda 4.80-12 Trailer Wheel and Tire Center on Pilot Diameter of Wheel or Lug NutsThe trailer wheel part # AM30620 that you referenced centers on the lug nuts so as long as it's pilot diameter is larger than the bore of the hub (like in your case) it will fit and work great while being perfectly centered.
view full answer... - Does Pilot Diameter of Trailer Wheel Have to Be Same As Previous Trailer Wheel When Replacing WheelThe pilot diameter of a wheel really only has to be an exact match if the wheel attaches to the hub with wheel bolts and not lug nuts. Wheel bolts indicate the wheel is hub centric so that the pilot diameter would have to be an exact match. Lug nuts indicate the wheel centers on the lug nuts so as long as the pilot diameter is large enough to fit over the hub it's totally fine. The part # AM30620 has a pilot diameter of 2.84 inches.

- How to Pick out Replacement Bearings for Boat TrailerThe best way to find the correct replacement bearings is to get the numbers stamped onto the metal of the inner and outer bearings currently on the trailer. With those numbers you will be able to find the correct replacement bearings, races, and seals. Another option is to measure the spindle of your trailer. You can use a micrometer to get the diameter where the seal, inner, and outer bearings ride. See picture. I have included a link to a video on inspecting trailer bearings that should...

- Does 4 Lug 4.80-8 and 4.80-12 Wheel/Tire Combo Use Same Wheel Bolt PatternIf your 4.80-8 wheel/tire is mounted on a wheel with a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern, then a 4.80-12 mounted on a wheel with a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern such as # AM30620 would indeed fit. The bolt pattern is the same, the only thing that changes is the size of the tire and the diameter of the wheel.
view full answer... - Does Trailer Tire Capacity Include Tongue Weight Supported by Vehicle and Not TiresThat's a really good question, but the way tires for a trailer are rated is based on the overall weight of the trailer including the weight that is pin or tongue weight. Reason being that on inclines more of the trailer's weight gets transferred to the tires so the tires need to be rated for that.
view full answer... - Replacement Tires and Wheels for a 1995 Tracker Trailstar Pontoon Trailer with 20.5x8-10 TiresThe metric equivalent to a 20.5 x 8-10 is an ST205/65-10. There are 2 different bolt patterns in this size: 4 on 4 and 5 on 4-1/2. You will want to measure the bolt pattern to make sure you get the correct one. Other important information you will need is the capacity of the existing tires. I have included some links that will help with measuring bolt pattern and trailer tires. I have also linked all of the tire and wheel combinations we have for the ST205/65-10 size.
view full answer... - What psi Should Trailer Tires be Inflated ToTrailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum air pressure indicated on the tire. The tire on tire and wheel combo # AM30620 for example should be at 90 psi. The reason that you inflate trailer tires to the max is because trailer tires are built with a thicker sidewall to handle more vertical load. If the tires are under inflated, because of that thicker sidewall it will cause them to generate excessive heat. Heat is the number one enemy of tires. I have included a link to the...
view full answer... - Loadstar or Kenda TiresKenda is the name of the tire manufacturer, and Loadstar is the name of the model or tread design of the particular tire. If you click on the second thumbnail photo under the photo on the product description page, and scroll your cursor over it, you can see Loadstar printed on the tire. The part # AM30620 is a load range C tire with a 990 lb capacity at 90 psi. For maximum tire life and performance, trailer tires should be kept at the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall.
view full answer... - Do the Kenda Wheel and Tire Combos for Trailers Come BalancedThe tire and wheel combos we carry like the part # AM30620 you referenced 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).

view full answer... - How is Lug Pattern Measured for 4 On 4 Inch Lug Bolt Pattern WheelsWhen measuring the wheel bolt pattern for 4 on 4 inch wheels, the measurement is taken on lug holes diagonally, not lug holes side by side. I recommend measuring your wheel again, center-to-center on lugs directly across from each other. The lug holes are closer than 4 inches together when measured side to side, center on center. I've attached a photo showing this measurement on a wheel for you, as well as a help article on determining wheel bolt pattern.

- Recommended PSI Rating for Kenda 4.80-12 Tire and Wheel AM30620For best performance, trailer tires need to be filled to the maximum psi rating indicated on the sidewall. The # AM30620 tire and wheel is rated for 1600lbs of weight when inflated to the indicated 90 psi. I am including links to a demonstration video for this tire and wheel as well as an FAQ on trailer tires that should be helpful for you.
view full answer... - What is Recommended Tire Pressure for Trailer TiresSpecial 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...

My Kenya tires still going strong 1 year later. I have about 3000 miles on the tires with most trips at 60-70 mph. I have repacked my wheel bearings at 1500 miles just because I like to err on the safe side. No flats, no problems - Highly recommend.
