The Karrier tire and the Loadstar tire are separate lines of tires that are made by the Kenda tire company. If the same tire size is made in both brands they will interchange with each other as long as the load carrying capacities are the same on both tires.

In the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range F, part # AM10501, that you have referenced, it is only available in the Karrier line of tires.

Kenda has been producing many types of tires since 1962. In the their specialty line of tires they produce many types of trailer tires and industrial tires.

I am including a link to a FAQ page on common questions about trailer tires.
