Not all trailer tires have the same speed ratings. Most are only rated for 65 but of the brands we carry Taskmaster tires are rated for 81 and Lionshead 75 mph.

For your tire size of 4.80-12 we only have one tire with a higher speed rating and that is a Taskmaster # TTWSF48012C which is rated for 81 mph.
