• Boat Trailer Tires Are Only Showing Tread Wear on the Outsides
  Trailer axles usually have a bow in them at the center so the center of the axle is closer to the bottom of the frame than the ends. This causes the tires to camber in at the bottoms (positive camber). When a load is placed on the trailer that bow flattens out and the tires straighten. If the load is not heavy enough then it will not cause the axle to flatten out and the tires will still have a positive camber causing wear on just the outside tread. Going to a wider tire would not solve...

• Possible Cause of Tires on 5th Wheel Travel Trailer Wearing Heavily on the Inside
  A couple of things come to mind when I hear that all four of the tires are wearing heavily on the inside. The most common culprit is an overloaded trailer. A trailer axle will have a natural bow in it that is curved upward in the middle when trailer is unloaded. When a load is placed on it, the axle will straighten out. If the the load is too heavy the axle will bow downward in the middle and push the bottoms of the tires out leading to excessive wear on the insides of the tires. Another...

• Trailer Tire Options in Size 205/75/14 for House Boat trailer
  You can usefully change your trailer tires to a higher load rating if the trailer's capacity is high enough to make that change worthwhile. If your trailer axle and hubs are rated for a higher load capacity than the two tires then moving to a higher load rating tire/wheel will let you realize a gain in overall weight capability. However, upgrading one part of the system does not automatically mean that you have increased the trailer's capacity; the lowest-rated part of the system - the...

• Can a ST225/75D15 Trailer Tire be Swapped out for a ST225/75R15
  The difference between the ST225/75D15 and the ST225/75R15 is the way the tire is constructed. The D in the ST225/75D15 size means that it is a bias-ply tire whereas the R in the ST225/75R15 means that it is a radial tire. Radial tires are preferred because the tire has more flex and will allow for more ground contact. That will improve traction and better tread wear. It also gives the radial tire better stability. Radials will also run cooler. So long story short, you could swap out...

• Determining Correct Tire Size to Use On Trailer
  When determining the correct size tires to use on your trailer, you will want to make sure that the combined load capacity for the tires meets or exceeds the GVWR of the trailer. The GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) refers to the most the trailer can weigh when fully loaded. This information should be stamped on the trailer either to the frame itself or with a tag/sticker. This along with fender and frame clearance will determine what tire size will work best. Your best bet is to simply...

• Trailer Tire and Wheel in 205/75-15 Size for 8,500 lb Travel Trailer
  When picking out tires for your travel trailer you actually will want to do it by weight capacity of the tires. Let's use the part # AM32409 that you referenced as an example. This wheel and tire has a capacity of 1,820 lbs. That would mean it would take over 4 wheels at this capacity to meet your 8,500 lb trailer weight. So you would need a higher capacity.

• Troubleshooting Rear Tires on Tandem Axle Trailer that are Wearing
  Is your trailer being towed level? Towing an out of level tandem axle trailer can cause the tires on one axle to wear differently. In your case it would sound like your trailer is nose high and because of that the rear tires are wearing. I attached a help article that details how to pick out the correct rise/drop ball mount to tow trailer level.

• Do All Tires on Trailers Require the Same Pressure
  Trailer tires need to be inflated to their max pressure rating to ensure they get the full weight capacity and to reduce heat build up which causes eventual tire failure. So the short answer is yes you need to make sure all of your tires are inflated to their max pressure rating. The other thing you should note is that you really should be running the same tire Load Range on all of your wheels so that you can run the same pressure in all of them. If you get me the tire size you have...

• Trailer Tires for 10,000 Pound Dump Trailer
  You may be able to still use a 225/75-15 tire but use a higher load range. The highest we have in that size is a load range E rated for 2,830 pounds at 80 psi, # AM10303. Four of these on a tandem axle trailer would have a capacity of 11,320 pounds combined. It is essential that the trailer tires always be inflated to the maximum psi rating indicated on the tire. This is because trailer tires are built with a thicker sidewall to handle more vertical load compared to passenger vehicle tires....

• Rim and Tire Recommendation for Use with 84550BX Hubs
  For starters it's not recommended to use vehicle rims on a trailer hub. Truck rims are not rated for the vertical loads that trailers see so I would strongly recommend you go with a trailer tire. That being said, the Hub Assembly part # 84550BX that you referenced centers on the lugs so pilot diameter isn't important. This is a lug-centric setup. If the hub used wheel bolts instead of lugs the setup would be considered hub-centric and the pilot diameter would be important. It's also important...

• Can a 235/65R15 Tire Replace a 205/75/15 Trailer Tire
  As long as your rim is between 6 and 7 inches in width a 225/75R15 size tire would fit on the rim. The tire will be about 1-1/2 inches taller so you will need to make sure you have the additional clearance for that. For a tire I would recommend the part # AM10256.

• Upgrading to a Larger Tire Size on a Sundowner Trailer
  Sundowner would know if the rims they installed on your trailer are capable of having a larger size installed on them so you should be fine. The 205/75-15 tire size can fit rims that are 5 to 6-1/2 inches in width whereas the 225/75-15 can fit on rims that are 6 to 7 inches in width. When going to a larger tire we recommend you check the clearances of the trailer to be certain that a larger and wider tire could fit. I would recommend a radial ST225/75R15 like part # AM10303 over a bias...

• Replacement 15 Inch Trailer Wheels with 5 on 5 Inch Bolt Pattern and ST205/75R13 Tires
  An ST205/75R15 will fit on rim widths measuring 5, 5-1/2, 6, or 6-1/2 inches. For that tire size already mounted on a steel wheel with a 5 on 5 bolt pattern take a look at # AM32409. I have also included a link to all of the wheels and tire/wheel combos that feature the 5 on 5 bolt pattern and can accept or has the ST205/75-15 tire.

• Can a Load Range E Trailer Tire be Used in Place of a Load Range D Trailer Tire
  Different size and bolt pattern wheels that take the same tire size will have different psi ratings. If your existing wheels are rated for 65 psi then it is less likely that they would also be rated for 80 psi which is what an ST225/75-15 load range E tire requires. Trailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum psi as indicated on the tire. The person you spoke with must not have known about the difference between trailer tires and passenger vehicle tires. Trailer tires are made...

• What Wheel Bolt Pattern Is Needed For A 2006 Cherokee 28A Model Travel Trailer
  You will need to measure the bolt pattern of the trailer. In the 15 inch wheel size the two bolt patterns will be either a 5 lug on 4-1/2 inches and 5 lug on 5 inch. If you measure the distance from the the center of one bolt to the center of the bolt next to it and it measures 2-5/8 inches, it is a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. If it measures 3 inches then it is a 5 on 5 inch bolt pattern. I am sending a link to how to measure a bolt pattern. Another thing you will want to check is...

• Can Trailer Tire Size 225/75-15 Fit 6 or 7 inch Wide Trailer Wheel
  The diameter of the tire would not change if you went to a narrower wheel by 1 inch. The wheel being narrower does not push the top of the tire up higher. A tire like the # AM10303 would work great. It fits tire widths of 6 inch to 7 inch in width too which means it would work well for you in that regard as well. I attached a link to a page that has all of the tire and wheels we offer in this size too. You'd need to select the bolt pattnern of your wheels from the filters to pick out a wheel.

• Trailer Wheel and Tire to Fit Bolt Pattern 5 on 5 inch
  Your tire size should not be installed on a trailer rim or ever used on a trailer. Your size starts with a P which means it's a passenger vehicle tire and is not rated for trailer use. You need a tire size that starts with ST which is rated for trailer use. The best option for you is to go with the part # AM32409 which includes an ST205/75R15 tire size. This will work well for you and will give you a setup designed specifically for trailer use. I attached a review video for this setup...

• Can 205/75-14 Tires And Wheels Be Changed To 225/75-15 Combos On Toy Hauler
  With the size tire and wheels you said you want to use on your toy hauler, you may have some problems with clearance. You want a minimum of 3-inches clearance from the top of the tire to the fender when the trailer is loaded. The overall diameter of your 14-inch tires is 26.106 inches. If you change to the 225/75-15 tires and wheels, the overall diameter is 28.288 inches. That is more than 2 inches more of overall diameter and would really reduce the clearance for the tire to the fender...

• Tread Wear on Just the Outer Tread of ST225/75-15R Tires on a Jayco Trailer
  Tire wear just on the outer tread of the tires can indicate that the load on the trailer is too light to fully straighten out the axle. Trailer axles have a bow in them and when weight is put on them they will straighten out. Switching to higher capacity tires will not solve the issue. If it is happening just on one side then the issue could be a worn suspension component and you would want to check the suspension for wear and tear and replace parts as needed. If you did want to go to...

• Tire Recommendation to fit a 15 inch Trailer Rim
  We have replacement tires that will fit 15 inch rims, but none that are designed to fit 14-1/2 inch rims. So I can recommend you tires for the 15 inch rims like a 205/75R15 like the part # AM10245 and then for spares you could use the rim and tire part # AM32395 for a rim with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern or part # AM32409 for a 5 on 5 inch bolt pattern. If you are unsure what your bolt pattern is check out the help article I attached on determining bolt patterns. For info on determining...

• Spare Tire Mount for a Trailer Tire and Wheel with 5 on 5 Bolt Pattern
  For a wheel with a 5 on 5 bolt pattern such as # AM32409 you will need to use a u-bolt type of carrier, # FETCHL0700, which comes with a lock and can be bent to fit a 5 on 5 bolt pattern. Most other carriers, other than the ones like # FETCHL0700, will not accept a 5 on 5 bolt pattern.

• Stock Tire Sizes for 2013 Toyota Prius v
  The 2013 Toyota Prius V can come with either of two stock tire sizes, 205/60-16 or 215/50-17. The larger size tire 215/50-17 is 8-1/2-inches wide. A 235 size tire is 9-1/4-inches wide and this wide a tire could potentially cause interference issues with brake lines and other vehicle components within the wheel well. I reviewed an online version of the owner's manual for the car and it has no information about using larger tires than the two sizes noted above so I would not attempt to use...

• Looking for ST205/75-15 Wheel/Tire Combo for Spare Tire on ATV Trailer
  If the center of one bolt hole to the center of the adjacent bolt hole measures 3 inches, you have a 5 lug on a 5 inch bolt circle. If that distance is 2-5/8 inches, it's 5 on 4-1/2. If it's 2-3/4 inches, its 5 on 4-3/4. I've linked you to an article that explains how to I ran out to our warehouse and measured the distance by skipping one hole like you did, and found that a 5 on 5 wheel matched the measurement you took. Please measure the distance between two adjacent holes to confirm,...
