Radial Tires vs. Bias Tires

Radial tire vs bias tire graphic

Radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway. The cords on a radial tire are positioned at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel so that they lay across the width of the tire from wheel lip to wheel lip. This construction prevents the cords from rubbing against one another when the tire flexes, unlike the cords on a bias ply tire. As a result, radial tires have less rolling resistance and heat buildup, which leads to a longer tread life and improved steering at higher speeds.


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.

Bolt Pattern - Odd

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.)

Bolt Pattern - Even

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.)

Bolt Pattern - 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"

Average Customer Rating:  4.7 out of 5 stars   (36 Customer Reviews)

Radial tire has a ply rating of 6 and a 1,820-lb maximum load at 50 psi. The 15" diameter x 5" wide aluminum trailer wheel features a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern and is corrosion resistant.

Ordered this wheel/tire to replace the small 12 inch wheel/tires for my single axle SeaDoo PWC trailer.
For those considering figment, I can confirm, these larger wheels fit perfectly. The only thing to consider is the fact you’ll need larger lug nuts so that the lug wrench has adequate purchase for tightening.



by:

I ordered 4 trailer rims and tires. Two of them have a big ripple in the side wall of tire. The shipping came when it was supposed to, however the tire quality was poor. I emailed the post I received confirmation order from and no answer. I would not order from here again unless they take care of my problem, and they can show me there tire quality is up to par. A 1,000 rim and tire order should have had better quality control. I will repost a review and update if they fix my problem.

I wanted to let you know that this does happen from time to time with tires. This condition, sometimes referred to as sidewall undulations, is a common characteristic of radial tire construction. These indentations are more noticeable in larger or wider radial-ply tire sizes and become more visible with higher inflation pressures. It does not hurt the tire or the tires performance at all.



by:

This is exactly what I was looking for! Very nice looking and will definitely serve it a purpose for a spare tire. Your service was spot on as well as your shipping! Am going to return to purchase a few other items! A++



by:

I wasnt sure what to expect when buying 4 of these rim and tire combos but they definitely exceeded my expectations. They all came in an individual box which I thought was over kill considering it’s just a tire and most places would just shrink wrap it and send it on its way, but that just speaks to how etrailer feels about its customers.



by:

The people I spoke with our wonderful, and the product is delivered fast. But there is a real issue with their supplier and that they have no control over the age of the tires. Two of my tires are a year and a half old. We are told that these tires are good for only five years, so that’s more than 20% of the life of the tire used on delivery. They offered to take back the two tires, but they would not pay for shipping. Instead of sending me an email the minute the shipment arrives asking for a review (here it is), I would think that their staff’s time would be better served in creating a better relationship with their supplier that guarantees the customer fresh tires.

The tires are stored in a controlled environment which keeps them from suffering from dry rot. The warranty on the tire starts from when they are purchased versus from when they are manufactured.



by:

These wheels look great!!! All dimensions as described, great fit bolted right up.

Great quality, have thousands of miles on these now without a problem.

by:

Called and talked with sales and set me up with exactly what I needed and an item that was in stock. I am a return cuatomer because any interaction I have had with them is positive. Thank You!



by:

More wrapping to protect the tires



by:

I should have gotten the lugs

The tire/rim combo was a good price. The rims were really clean looking with the black and machined face. Definitely recommend them.

  • Difference Between the Karrier KE27JR and KE43JR
    Jordan, it looks like the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Aluminum Wheel # KE43JR is the exact same thing as the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Aluminum Wheel # KE27JR. The # KE27JR also has ICF technology, while the other does not. Other than that, they both have the same part number, same model number, and all the same specs.

  • Recommended Wheel and Tire For Switching to 15 Wheel On Carry On 5 x 8 Utility Trailer
    If you are able to move up to a 15" wheel and tire I recommend the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Aluminum Wheel # KE27JR. This tire is 27.3" tall and 8" wide is of radial construction and speed rated up to 81mph. Your 4.8-12 # AM30660 is only 20.3" tall and 4.75" wide. So you will need to ensure you have 2-5/8" side wall clearance and 6-1/2" of vertical clearance. To fit this you will likely need to add some sort of wheel spacers to move the tire away from the frame and...

  • Does Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Aluminum Wheel Come Balanced
    The Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Aluminum Wheel # KE27JR does not come balanced, which is perfectly normal for a trailer tire, although the shaking you mentioned sounds like it might be excessive. Trailer tires don't have to run as smooth as passenger vehicle tires since nobody will be traveling inside the trailer. With that being said, if you wanted to get your trailer tires balanced there isn't anything wrong with that, and we actually have balancing beads you insert...

  • Largest Recommended Wheel and Tire For Use With Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # A20RS545
    Our largest wheel and tire we carry I recommend using for the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # A20RS545 is the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Aluminum Wheel # KE27JR. This is our largest wheel diameter with the 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern the Timbren above includes. The hub face offset being 4-7/8" with the tire having a width of 7.6 and zero offset will give you roughly 3-7/8" from the hub and 1" of clearance which is sufficient. The tire has a load rating of 1,820lbs...

  • Trailer Tire Wearing Oddly in Middle on E-Pro 19FSB
    Hi Allen, Generally when a trailer tire is wearing oddly in the middle it is due to the trailer being overloaded or the tires not being fully inflated to handle the weight being put on them. So what I would do is go ahead and fully inflate your tires to the max 50 psi so they have the full capacity they are rated for, and see if that remedies the issue. You're right that the tires wouldn't be made with longer or shorter tread, which is why I think it's likely the fact they aren't being...

  • Will Karrier ST205/75R15 Fit 2024 Carry-On 5X12GW
    Hi Greg; since your 2024 Carry-On 5X12GW came with 205/75-15 tires the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Aluminum Wheel # KE27JR will probably fit. The only reason these wouldn't work is if you have a different bolt pattern. As long as you have a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern they will make a great replacement.
