Question:

We do not carry a radial trailer tire in 5.30-12 size but there is another option. You can also use a 145/80-12. Both tires will fit on a 4 inch wide rim and can have similar weight capacities. The one size difference is that the 145/80-12 is 0.6 inches shorter than a 5.30-12.
For a radial that is 145/80-12, I recommend # AM10130 that you have referenced. This is a radial tire that is rated for 1,220 pounds at 65 psi. According to my contact at Kenda, the people who would benefit most from a radial tire are those that would tow the trailer frequently. Otherwise, a bias trailer tire is perfectly fine. So if you wanted to stay true to the original size that was on the Rockwood, a 5.30-12 trailer tire will work just as well as a radial tire.
