• What Does a Trailer Tire Load Range Mean
  I believe you mean Load Range since the Load Ranger was the unsuccessful brother of the Lone Ranger. For any given tire size there can be different load ranges. The different load ranges have different weight capacities. This has to do with the number of plies and/or ply rating of the tire. The more plies in the tire construction or the higher ply rating the higher the capacity is. Keep in mind that going to a higher capacity tire does not increase the capacity of the trailer. If we...

• Recommended Replacement for 7.00-15LT Tires
  The 7.00-15LT tires you have on your 1978 Avion trailer have a 29.4" diameter, have a load range that should be in the 2,400 lb vicinity and fit wheels that are 5", 5-1/2" and 6". For comparable tires I recommend going with a trailer tire that is size 225/75-15; these tires are 28.4" in diameter, a width of 8.9" and fit 6" wide wheels. A great option is the Karrier # AM10256 which fits 15" x 6" wheels and has a load range of D, with a capacity of 2,540 lbs at 65 psi. This is a radial tire...

• What is the Modern Tire Size for H78-15 Trailer Tires
  The modern tire size for the H78-15 tires is 225/75-15. The Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire, # AM10256, would be a suitable replacement tire. Keep in mind, this is a Load Range D tire which is an 8 ply tire with a load capacity of 2,540 lbs at 65 psi. I recommend checking the weight capacity of your axles before purchasing a tire. It is important to choose replacement tires that equal or exceed the weight capacity of your axle. Also, it is recommended to replace both tires on...

• Can a 205/75-14 Size Tire Replace a 205/70-14 Size Tire
  As long as the 205/70-14 tires still have plenty of space between them and the fenders you an upgrade to a 205/75-14 tire like part # AM10256. The larger tire is the same width but it's about 3/4 of an inch larger in diameter so you need to make sure you'll still have at least 3 to 4 inches between the tire's tread and the underside of the fenders.

• Does Load Range of 225/75R15 Trailer Tire Affect Durability
  That is a good question and it is certainly reasonable to think that might be the case but it actually is not. A ST225/75R15 trailer tire with a load range of D such as the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # AM10256 will last just as long and perform just as well as its equivalent with a load range of E, the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10303. Generally speaking, the higher the load range of tire, the more expensive, so as long as the...

• Should 225/75R15 Tires Be Ran at Full PSI with Trailer Unloaded
  Hey Juan, thanks for reaching out! You've stumbled upon one of the greatest frustrations in the trailer tire industry. The everyday user knows that it's okay to lower the psi in the tire some so that it isn't as stiff and bouncy when the trailer isn't loaded to max weight, but most of the tire companies on the market don't have a chart showing what the weight rating is for different psi ratings. So, for a 225/75R15 tire like the Karrier # AM10256 we see the 2,540 lbs at 65 psi rating...

• Replacement Trailer Tires for 15 Inch Wheels to replace 7.00-15 Tire Size On A 15X5.5 Wheel
  The Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire, # AM10244, will fit on a 15x5.5 inch wheel. It has a maximum load rating of 1,820 lbs. at 50 psi and an overall diameter of 27.3 inches. The overall width is 8.1 inches. I would not recommend installing the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire, # AM10256, on a rim width of 5.5 inches. The minimum rim width for that size tire is 6 inches. If you try to squeeze that size tire on a narrower wheel than what is recommended, it will cause the tread...

• Differences between Kenda Karrier KE43KV And AM10256
  Hi Charlie! The Kenda Karrier # KE43KV (10253) and # AM10256 are pretty similar to each other. They both have an M Speed Rating (81mph), have a 2,540 pound capacity at 65 psi, have a Load Range D with 8 ply sidewalls, are ST225/75R15 Radial tires, and have a 5-Year limited warranty with a 1-Year worry-free guarantee.

• Replacement Tire for Dutchmen Coleman 250TQ RV
  I spoke with Dutchmen regarding your Coleman Dutchmen CTS 250TQ trailer and was informed that this RV uses the ST225/75R15 tire size with a Load Range D.

• Is There a Dexstar Wheel 017-117 & 225/75-15 Tire
  Hey Steve, We do have that the 017-117 Dexstar wheel as well as 225/75-15 tires, though not as a combo so you'll have to get the tire mounted on the wheel. For the wheel, what you're looking for is the Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel with Offset - 15" x 6" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 # AM20504. Then for the tire, the right one will depend on the load rating you need: - Load Range C (2,150 lbs): Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10251 - Load Range D (2,540 lbs): Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial...

• Looking For Replacement For Older 7.00-15LT Trailer Tires On A 1975 Wilderness 5th Wheel
  Hello Jeffrey, that is a cool camper. The 7.00-15lt tires are a much older size that is no longer used. The 7.00-15lt tires should be about 29-1/2" in diameter and they fit a 15" diameter wheel. Our best option for replacing them is a ST225/75R15 tire which has a diameter of 28.4" and a width of 8.9". For that I recommend the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10256. This has a load range D meaning an 8-ply rating and a max load of 2,540 lbs at 65 PSI. They also have an 81-mph...

• Can 3,500 lb Grease Hubs be Converted to Oil Bath
  What you have is a 3,500 lb hub that needs to be replaced with something like the # 84546UC3. This hub will fit your current trailer based on the bearing numbers you listed. You can use the # XLPROLUBE1980KIT with this hub to convert the setup to an oil bath type hub if you like though. This kit comes with seals and cap adapters so that oil can be used instead of grease.

• Comparing Karrier and Provider Trailer Tires in Size ST225/75-15 Load Range E and D
  One of the big differences between the tires you mentioned is the Load Range. The part # TTWTRTM2257515D and # AM10256 Load Range D and are from Taskmaster and Karrier respectfully. The Load Range E versions are Taskmaster # TR225LRE and Karrier # AM10303. So essentially it's two brands of tires that have the same size available in different Load Ranges or weight capacities. Both are really close quality wise so if I were going to pick out one for myself I would go with the best priced...

• ST225/75R15 5 by 5 Bolt Pattern Trailer Wheel And Tire
  We have so many tires on our site so I can see it being difficult to find the right tire. Right now we do not have an ST225/75R15 tire already installed on a wheel with the 5 on 5" bolt pattern, but that is due to how uncommon the 5 on 5" bolt pattern is and not that it will not work. For a wheel we have the # AM20528DX which has the 5 on 5" bolt pattern you need, and for a tire I recommend going with the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # AM10256. This combination...

• Is There a Load Range Chart for Trailer Tires
  The reason that you cannot find a list of all load ranges and the weight capacity for each in regards to trailer tires is because it will be different for each size. For example, a 205/75-15 tire like part # AM10245 which has a load range D rating is rated for up to 2,150 lbs whereas a 225/75-15 tire like part # AM10256 which also has a load range D rating is rated for up to 2,540 lbs. We currently offer load ranges from B-J in a variety of different seizes which I have attached for you...

• Will an ST225/75R15 Trailer Tire Fit In Place of an ST205/75R15 Trailer Tire
  An ST205/75R15 tire size like you have now will have a section width of 8.1 inches and overall diameter of 27.3 inches. An ST225/75R15, # AM10256, will have a section width of 8.9 inches and overall diameter of 28.4 inches. So the larger size is 0.8 inches wider and 1.1 inches taller. On the height though only half of the height needs to be considered so it will be 0.55 inches closer to the underneath part of the fender. If you have more than 0.55 inches (just under 91/6 inches) clearance...

• Replacing 235/75R15 Tires on a Forest River r-pod
  The ST235/75R15 tires you referenced are not a standard sized trailer tire, hence the difficulty in finding them. Your best bet to find tires now and in the future would be to replace those with 225/75R15 tires, which will be extremely close in overall dimensions, as I'll outline for you below. 235/75R15 tires are 9.3 inches wide with a height of 28.8 inches. 225/75R15 tires are 8.9 inches wide with a height of 28.3 inches. You can get 225/75R15 tires in load ranges C, D, or E. For...

• Tallest Trailer Tire Size for 15" Wheels
  There are really only two standard trailer tire sizes for 15" wheels, 205/75-15 and 225/75-15 with the latter being the taller option (28.4" diameter x 8.9" wide vs. 27.3" diameter x 8.1" wide). I recommend the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire part # AM10256 for this which is a radial tire with load range d rating. It will be almost an inch taller than a 205/75-15.

• Can a Trailer with 205/75R14 Tires go to 225/75R15 Tires
  Your current tires that are 205/75R14 are 26.3 inches in overall height. The 225/75R15 you are considering is 28.4 inches in height. So that means that the new tires would take up about an inch more of your fender wells. If you have clearance for that you should be just fine. You will have to have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern to fit the Load Range E rim and tire part # AM32680 though. I attached a help article on bolt patterns for you to check out as well.

• Can Trailer Tires be Changed from 225/75-15 Size to 205/75-15 Size
  You can certainly change your trailer tires to a narrower 205mm width as long as your wheels are 6- or 6-1/2-inches in width. These are the only size wheels that can take both 225mm and 205mm tire sizes. Please refer to the linked article on tire sizes. You'll also want to make sure that your new 205-size tires have the required weight carrying capacity for your trailer. Since you're going to a smaller tire you do not have to worry about reduced wheel well clearance. A 225/75-15 tire is...

• How to Measure a Trailer Wheel Pilot Hole to Choose a Replacement Center Cap
  The pilot hole on a wheel is the big center hole right in the middle of the wheel. It fits over the hub.. It can be tough to measure these with the wheel still on the trailer so you will want to remove the wheel and then it will be easier to measure. The best way to measure it would be to use digital or dial calipers. I can look up the tire you previously ordered, # AM10256, but since the wheels that the tire fits could have different size pilot holes I cannot go by the tire size alone....

  The Load Range D trailer tires in the size of ST 225/75R15 has a 2,540 lbs at 65 psi capacity like the part # AM10256. For a 15 inch wheel with a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern that has a 2,860 lbs at 80 psi capacity you would want the part # AM20539. In order for the rim to have a high enough capacity for the tire you have it will need to be a 6 lug wheel. The # AM10256 has several positive reviews on the product page from our customers who have tried it so it would be a great option for...
