Helpful Expert Reply:

The Kenda tire like what's used on the # AM32161 in size ST205/75R14 are rated for 81 mph, a similar wheel/tire combo from Taskmaster would need to be purchased separately because we don't currently have a combined option from that manufacturer in your size.

We've carried Kenda Karrier tires for years, and as long as they're kept properly inflated, they are not overloaded and the tire's speed rating is observed, we've had no history of problems with them.

Taskmaster Provider tires have a good reputation in the industry, and they're also well received by our customers . We've had no history of problems with those as well. Provider tires are the OEM tire of choice for many trailer manufacturers.

I'll link you to our FAQ article that contains much helpful information about trailer tires.
