Question:
WHAT IS THE SPEED RATING OF THIS TRAILER TIRE - Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8inch Galvanized Wheel - 4 on 4 - Load Range C Item # AM30050 CAN I DRIVE ON HIGHWAY 55 MPH WITH IT?

Expert Reply:
The Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" Galvanized Wheel # AM30050 is rated for speeds up to 65 mph and loads up to 745 lbs per wheel at the 90 psi max. You will always want to inflate these tires to 90 psi prior to your trip to ensure they operate correctly. You can safely travel 55mph with these tire combinations and even safely to speeds up to 65 mph.
When a speed rating is not listed on a tire, the default rating is 65 mph. I've linked an article that helps with the speed rating labels.
Let me know if you have further questions.
