Question:
I was planning on replacing my worn tires on my utility trailer. Can you tell me how well these stand up to interstate highway speeds for extended times? I will only be hauling about 600 lbs. Thanks

Expert Reply:
The Kenda K371 Bias Trailer Tire, # AM10004, is rated for speeds not exceeding 65 miles per hour. Provided that the tire is not overloaded (one tire is rated at 760 pounds at 90 psi) and it is inflated to the maximum psi rating of 90 pound per square inch, then the tire will last a long time and perform well for you.
Trailer tires have thicker sidewalls that allow them to carry a heavier vertical load. If the tire is under inflated, it can cause the sidewall to heat up quicker and more which could lead to failure.
