Recommended Replacement Tires for 20.5x8.0-10 Size Boat Trailer Tires
Published 03/19/2019
Question:
Im going to be pulling a 15foot classic restored boat and trailer from GA to AL at interstate highway speeds. What do you recommend as a replacement for the current Transmaster 20.5x8.0-10/5lug 4.5 bias tires? Im looking for a pair of rim mounted replacements... white or galvanized.

I recommend replacing your 20.5 x 8-10 size bias tires with the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel # TA98RR. The wheel is a little bigger, but it has the same 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and the tire itself has a diameter of 20.5" which is the same as your current tire so you know it will fit properly.
This tire/wheel combo is a load range C (990 lbs at 90 psi) and has a max speed rating of 81 mph. The best part of these products is that they come with a Platinum Plus Warranty that includes roadside assistance for 2 years.
