WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!
In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.
The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…
...and has a diameter of 21.3 inches. Since the section width of the ST145/R12 tire is about 1/2 an inch wider you will want to make sure that you have enough clearance with the trailer frame as it sits about...
The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…
Load range B trailer tires are going to have a lower capacity than C load range tires. Basically that, psi rating, and the ply rating are the only differences. A higher load range tire would last a little longer than lower load ranges of the same…
Your math is correct in your trailer weight load example. If a fully-loaded tandem axle trailer weighs 4000-lbs then each of the 4 tires will bear 1/4th of that load, or 1000-lbs. In this case a tire rated for 1300-lbs would provide a good safety…
...The two sizes you mentioned are pretty similar and fit many of the same 15 inch wheels. The 205/75-15 fits rim widths of 5 inch to 6-1/2 inch whereas the 225/75-15 fits widths that are 5 inch to 6...
...The three most common lug stud sizes for a trailer are 1/2"-20, 9/16"-18, and 5/8"-18. In order to make sure you get the correct lug nuts you need to measure the lug studs on the trailer now as we...
Tire designations ST205/75D14 and ST205/75R14 are both for special trailer tires with a 205mm width, 75-percent aspect ratio and that fit a 14-inch wheel. The difference between them is the tire's type of construction. The ST205/75D14 tire is a…
Karrier and Loadstar are two different brand names used by Kenda. There's no difference in quality or function between the two brand names. For a ST175/80-13 Radial trailer tire in load range D, I'd recommend part #AM10210 if you're…

For a 205/75-15 tire in load range C, I recommend the Provider Radial Trailer Tire, # TTWTRTM2057515C. This tire has a weight capacity of 1,820 lbs and includes a 2-year warranty...
Even though I cannot comment specifically on the grease you used because I am not familiar with it, I can tell you the best grease for trailer bearings is a a grease with a rating of GC-LB, which just means it is made to withstand very high…
