Taskmaster Radials

Taskmaster radials have double polyester cords and double steel belts for increased durability and endurance. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation. Taskmaster radials are bake tested - a process usually reserved for automotive tires - to ensure that the rubber holds up over time.


Radial tire vs bias tire graphic

The standard tread on this tire has solid, continuous ribs, and there are very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. This tire is designed for use on trailers, so it doesn't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.


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.

  • What 4.80-12 Tire on Galvanized Wheel do You have for My Boat Trailer Used on Sometimes Saltwater?
    Hello Todd, We definitely have something for you, but we do not a radial tire and wheel combo, as we only have that tire and wheel combo in a bias. It depends on your bolt pattern, and the weight of your boat to decide what the best option for you. You will want one of the following: - If you have a 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern and your boat does not weigh more than 2,500 pounds (assuming you need 2 wheels) # AM30670 - If you have a 4 on 4" bolt pattern and your boat does not weigh more...

  • Replacement 4.80-12 Tires Needed For A Boat Trailer
    Hey Mike, A load range C tire only having 450lbs of capacity, even at that size sounds a little low. Are you sure they're only rated for 450lbs max? If that really is the case then you're right on the edge of those tires capacity and the tow vehicle is likely picking up the rest of the weight via the tongue weight of the trailer. Could you possibly make it the 50 miles to your destination? Yes, but should you risk a blowout and potentially damaging or losing the boat, trailer, and possibly...

  • How to Fix Top of Trailer Tires Rubbing Fender
    You actually should shoot for 4-1/2" of clearance between the top of your tire and the bottom of the fender well. This accounts for flex in your suspension. Unless 2,280 lbs is the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) of your trailer then you need to look into lifting your trailer as opposed to smaller tires. Even just going down to 4.80R12 tires, like part # TT48012C, gives you an overall weight capacity of 3,960 lbs. This means that you can load about 1,700 lbs on your trailer before it...

  • Best Replacement 4.80-12 Size Tire for a 2002 Viking Saga Pop-Up Camper
    The best 4.80-12 size tire for your 2002 Viking Saga pop-up camper is the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT48012C because the radial design is better for highway use as it better dissipates heat, it has a load range of C (990 lbs at 90 psi), and a max speed rating of 81 mph. The other tires in this size have a bias design which can be used on the highway but they have a stiffer sidewall which makes it more effective for off-road use. If you are needing to replace the wheels too...

  • Highest Speed Load Range C 12 Inch Radial Trailer Tire to Stop Blowouts
    The load range C Provider ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire # TTWTRTM1758013C has a speed rating of M, which is 81 mph; and there are tires with speed ratings of N, though not for 12 inch tires; for that the highest speed rating the 81 mph M-rated tire. There are two things you can do in order to reduce blowouts, one of which is not exceed the speed rating, but the other is absolutely go to a radial trailer tire. These flex more and run cooler than bias trailer tires, so if you are using...

  • Will Changing Tires On Trailer Increase The Speed Rating?
    Typically the only part of a trailer that has a speed rating is the tires, so if the reason your trailer is limited to 45 MPH is due to the speed rating of the tires, then yes you will be able to increase the speed rating of the trailer by replacing the tires. To determine which tires are going to be correct you will need to know the size of your current tires. You can find this stamped on the sidewall of the tires as shown in the included help article. If you can let me know what size...

  • Is There Smaller 12 inch Trailer Tire that is Radial
    Hey William, I am not sure what 12 inch tire size you have currently but we do have a radial version of the 4.80R12 with the part # TT48012C which has an overall diameter of 20.63 inches. Is this smaller than what you have?

  • How Much PSI Should I Put In a 4.80 x 12 Trailer Tire
    The psi of your trailer tires will be listed on the side wall. It will list the max psi which is what you will want to fill them to regardless of how much weight you have. For reference, the 4.80 x 12 tires we carry have a 60 psi max for load range B and 90 psi max for load range C. If you would like you can put in less than the maximum psi but this I cannot recommend. With that being said, while you are looking for the psi range you may want to consider noting the overall condition of...

  • Fastest Tires for a Malone Kayak Trailer

  • Can Speed Rating of CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat Trailer be Upgraded
    Hey Mark, the speed rating of the CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks # CE48870 is 65 mph due to the tires that are on it. I checked your order notes to verify this was the trailer that you have. If you needed to go faster than that you can swap the tires out to the part # TT48012C which is the same size but rated for 81 mph instead.

  • What is the Speed Rating for the Kenda Tire on Galvanized Wheel # AM30630?
    The Kenda Trailer Tire with Galvanized Wheel # AM30630 is a bias tire which has cords inside which run at a 32 degree angle to the direction of travel for a stiffer sidewall than a radial tire. This tire has the standard speed rating of 65 mph. I've added a link to a video review of this wheel/tire combo for you to take a look at.

  • Recommended Higher Speed Rated Tires For Harbor Freight Trailer W/ 4.80-12 Tires
    Typically on a trailer the only part that has a speed rating is the tire itself, though you will need to contact the manufacturer of the trailer to confirm this. Based on the tag shown in your picture your trailer uses a 4.80-12 so for a high speed replacement we have the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C # TT48012C which will be an exact replacement, but has an 81 MPH speed rating. Should you find that the hub has a speed rating, just let me know the bearing combination...

  • 4.80-12 Trailer Tires Wearing in Middle Could it be 30 Inch Slipper Springs
    Hi Gary, Yes, it is possible the bounce is causing the issue with your tires wearing out more in the middle. You may try lowering the psi in the tires to help stop the bouncing, or going with a lower-rated tire like the load range B Kenda # AM10060. This has a 785 lb per-tire capacity, and it is important to makes sure the tires have a capacity that meets or exceed the GVWR of your trailer. That can be tough with a homemade trailer, of course, so I recommend weighing it fully loaded to...

  • Trailer Tire Recommendation for Replacing Size ST14512
    For a 12 inch trailer wheel I would recommend the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT48012C as it has a higher speed rating of 81 mph which is great for highway use and has plenty of weight capacity at 990 lbs per tire. It would only be slightly smaller in diameter than the size you have now but fits the same wheel.

  • Availability of Tires with High-Speed Rating for 12" Wheels
    If your 4x8 trailer currently has tires rated for 60-ish mph then all you need to do is swap them out for the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT48012C which has a load range of C (990 lbs at 90 psi), or the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT53012C which has a load range of C (1,050 lbs at 80 psi). Both options have a max speed rating of 81 mph. You can upgrade to larger 14" wheels and an appropriate tire size if you have the clearance between your trailer and any fender...

  • Replacement Tires for Harbor Freight 4x8 Trailer
    Hi Jeff; the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT48012C will fit the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel # AM20122 you ordered. This is the same tire size you have now so clearance isn't an issue. It also has the M speed rating for 81 mph. I don't think you're going to find anything that is rated higher in the smaller size. Keep in mind, the trailer itself might not be rated that high. Even if you switch to higher rated tires you may be limited by the max speed of that trailer.

  • How to Identify Axle on 2006 Continental JB157-700 Trailer
    Hello Burns; as long as the axle isn't significantly longer this may be possible but you will need to start by identifying what you have now. Specifically the axle capacity and the hub face measurement. I would start by checking the axle tag to see what information is listed. The capacity can typically be found here at a minimum. If you have a serial number the axle manufacturer can find this information for you. If the length of the axle isn't listed you will have to measure. Take a...

  • Can Speed Rating of CE Smith Boat Trailer be Increased
    Hey Jason, we don't have the ability to get the CE Smith Multi Sport Trailer # CE48870 in black. The speed rating of the CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks # CE48870 is 65 mph due to the tires that are on it. If you needed to go faster than that you can swap the tires out to the part # TT48012C. I am not sure if there's a way to replace the bunks with Yakima HD bars and the tongue was not designed to be removed when not in use.

  • Which is Better for Trailer Tire Size 4.80-12 a Radial or a Bias Ply
    Hey John, the better tire construction for you will depend on what roads you plan to travel on basically. If it will be a lot of paved roads the radial wins hands down or if instead it's off road then the sidewall of a bias ply would be your best option. The part # AM10062 is a bias ply and the part # TT48012C is a radial. What type of roads will you be on?

  • What Causes a Trailer Tire to Fail
    Hey Doug, I don't have the ability to look up what your trailer originally came with tire-wise but we can still help. So the main reasons tires fail are 1. they are overloaded. B. they aren't properly inflated. 4. the speed rating is being exceeded. C. they are too old. So you have to stay under the tires weight capacity, inflate tires to their max psi when cold under all circumstances, stay under the speed rating, and replace them when they get to be 4-6 years old For a tire in that...
