Specs:
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 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.

Today we're going to review part number AM3S434. This is a Kenda Loadstar Tire size ST205/75D14. It's a bias trailer tire. It's mounted on a 14-inch Five Spoke Aluminum Wheel. This wheel is a five spoke star design. The face of the spoke, the outer edge of the wheel has a machine finish and then the whole wheel is clear coated for protection against corrosion.
The opening of the wheel is silver painted and also has the clear coating. The back of the wheel is protected also. We're going to do a few measurements on this wheel, the diameter we'll measure inside to inside, it will be 14 inches. The width of this wheel is 5-1/2 inches wide. This wheel does have a bolt pattern of 5 holes 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
And on a wheel that has an odd number of lug holes like in this case, five, there are a couple of ways you can go about measuring the bolt pattern. And I'll show you on an alloy wheel because the lug holes are recessed and it's hard to see the center of the wheel hole. I'm going to turn it and we're going to measure the back of the wheel. That way we can see the center of the lug holes a lot better. Ok, the first way you can measure it would be is if you drew a circle through the center of all five of the lug holes and measure the diameter of that circle.
So in this case if we measured center of this hole to the outer edge of that circle it will be 4-1/2 inches so that means this is a 5 on 4-1/2 inch wheel bolt pattern. The other way is if you pick a lug hole and measure it from the center of that lug hole to the center of the lug hole adjacent to it, either way. In this case center to center will be 2-5/8 inches. And then what you'll do is go to the product page for this part number and at the bottom of the page there's a chart and it will show when that measurement is 2-5/8 inches it will mean this bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2 inch wheel. This wheel does have a weight capacity of 2040 lbs at 60 psi.
It does use a wheel bolt size of 1/2-inch by 20. The other critical measurement is the large hole in the center of the wheel, this is the pilot hole. This is what will go over the hub on your trailer. So if we measure the diameter on that it will be 3.19 inches. Now we'll move on to the tire which is a Loadstar size ST for Special Trailer, 205/75D14. The D will designate that this is a bias design tire. This tire is a Load Range C which is a six ply rated tire. This tire does have a maximum load carrying capacity of 1760 lbs at 50 psi. And because this wheel is a bias constructed tire what that will mean is the belts or the chords in the tire will run the length of the tire as opposed to a radial where they will run bead seat to bead seat or the radius of the tire. A bias tire usually when compared to a radial, the sidewall will be a little more firmer compared to a radial designed tire. I'll give you one last measurement, the overall diameter. That will be 26 inches. And this wheel and tire combo does come with a limited two year warranty. And that should do it for part number AM3S434.

I ordered on a Monday at 11:30pm and they were delivered to Pittsburgh PA Wednesday morning with free shipping. I would buy these all day everyday.
Etrailer is my go to for my RV, camper and trailer parts, great follow up after placing order.
OK - so this the second time I have used this site. I do not think I will ever use another site again for trailer parts! I was very satisfied with my first purchase with etrailer, so I used them for a spare tire I needed for a new boat trailer. As with my first purchase, the order confirmation was fast, the site easy to use, the price was very reasonable. But what stands out to me are: very fast shipping, fast delivery (2-3 days), and updates from order through delivery. So only use this site if you like fast, professional service and shipping and very good reliable parts. The "spare" I purchased was better than the wheels/tires that came with the new trailer. GREAT COMPANY!! Oh and the shipping packaging is also very good - with trailer parts they are often heavy, awkward shapes, loose parts, etc. The packaging is top notch - no torn cheap boxes.
Delivered on time and as advertised. Good value and a great warranty. Time will tell but expect good service going forward.
Fantastic speedy service.
Wheels look sharp on my old trailer and give it a much newer look
Great site! Easy to navigate, product videos very helpful. Prices were lower than I found anywhere else. My order was on my porch two days after I placed it. Everything was great and I have already told a business partner about the site who needed parts for his trailer.
Love the tires and rims. Look great on my boat trailer.
Had these on RV and bought to match. Tire blew out and didn't know, ruined 3 tires and 2 rims. Etrailer had very good communication and got them faster than estimated time.
The products were all shipped quickly and were well packaged which is not always the case with other companies. I will order again in the future.
Great service fast shipping eve upgraded my shipping for free
Product and process exceeded my expecta tions
great product matches my backtrailer tires perfect shipping was very fast
Review from a similar Loadstar Aluminum in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Great wheels and tires. Much nicer looking than the standard steel wheels, and with aluminum you don't have to worry about rust. The tires did very well at highway speeds. I would definitely recommend these to anyone considering them. I had an excellent buying experience with etrailer.com and will be buying from them again. Here is a picture of my trailer, it is a work in progress but the wheels/tires look great.

Delivery was fast. Wheels and tires look amazing. Really added to the look of the trailer.

These wheels and tires look great on my boat trailer, price is good and they arrived quickly. I did need to buy new lug nuts that are a bit longer and thinner but not a big deal and those great too. Definitely recommend!
Review from a similar Loadstar Aluminum in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Tires and rims are great, but they need balanced. I can spin both tires on my single axle trailer without brakes and they stop at the same spot with the heaviest at the bottom. If the heaviest area stops just before the top, it will rotate the other direction. I know some people believe you don't need to balance trailer tires, but this is a little beyond slightly out of balance for me. I will have to take and pay to have them balanced now.
Review from a similar Loadstar Aluminum in Trailer Tires and Wheels
I googled trailer tires and wheels and came up with etrailer.Com so I figured I would give it a shot. I decided to use the 800 number and spoke with Sammy G. She was super nice and courteous and helpful beyond my expectations. The aluminum wheels / tire combo she recommended were about 30 dollars per wheel higher than the standard white painted wheel / tire combination that everyplace sells. The best part is they send a pin so you can see the product. So I thought about it for a day or two and called back. This time I spoke with Troy H. who placed the order. Then they send and order confirmation and tracking. I have to say that the customer service / phone interaction was far better than I thought it would be. They are GREAT to work with and super nice on the phone. 110 percent is an understatement. I’m enclosing pictures of my 40 year old wheels and tires along with the new aluminum wheel and tire combo. My 74 Alumacraft is going to roll in style next summer. New customer for life ! Thanks for the excellent customer experience. Jeff in Wisconsin.
Review from a similar Loadstar Aluminum in Trailer Tires and Wheels
This is an outstanding wheel and tire, really an excellent value. I already have 2 of the same, and I bought this one to mount on my trailer as a spare. If anyone is considering buying this, I would say you should not hesitate. Great customer service and communication, also. When I need trailer stuff, I don't even look anywhere else.

Haven’t installed them yet, but they are going to look awesome on my Fleetwood Mesa popup. They will match my Jeep wheels. I’ll take pics when they are on the trailer
Review from a similar Loadstar Aluminum in Trailer Tires and Wheels
I bought these wheels to go on a motorcycle trailer and they look amazing. New paint and new wheels made my trailer look new even though it’s 30 years old. Thanks to etrailer.com for having the wheels I was looking for.
Review from a similar Loadstar Aluminum in Trailer Tires and Wheels
Replaced wheels and tires on my motorcycle tent trailer. I viewed my choice on line but call customer service to answer some of my questions about my choice and accessories. The customer service department is excellent as always. Thank you I am very pleased with my purchase. Great price and quality.

Please consider not putting stickers on the rims that have to be removed. Put on the back side where all the nasty glue will not show once they are removed. Thanks
