Trailer Tire Recommendation for Higher Speed in Size 5.30-12
Updated 07/15/2019 | Published 07/13/2019
Question:
I have a LUMINA pull behind MOTORCYCLE TRAILER that came with 5.30-12 tires that are only rated for 60mph. I saw two taskmaster tires that may be a fit. One of them was a smaller 4.30-12 that had a speed rating of 81mph that you recommended to some one else that sounds like they have a similar trailer. What tire would you recommend for my small trailer for extended highway speeds?

Expert Reply:
The best option we have is the Taskmaster Trailer Tire part # TT53012C that you referenced. This is the same size tire you have currently and has an 81 mph speed rating. There'd be no need to drop down to a smaller size tire.
