Question:

What is the smallest overall diameter tire and wheel package that exists that will allow Load D trailer tires ? Im trying to lower my deck height as much as possible, but still wanting to support my load. Im building a tiny house on wheels. Thanks

The smallest tire and wheel combination that allow load range D will have 5.70-8 tires. This tire and wheel combination will be 18.1 inches in diameter and have a 1,075 capacity at 100 psi. There are a pair of options for you which we carry depending on the wheel bolt pattern you have.

The Kenda # AM30153 has a 4 on 4 bolt pattern while the Kenda 5.70-8 # AM30156 has a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. If you are unsure which bolt pattern you have take a look at the linked help article I've added which details how to find your bolt pattern. I've also added links to video reviews of these tire/wheel combos for you to take a look at.
