The only wheel and tire combinations we offer for the ST145R12 size and 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern you listed are on aluminum wheels and are not load range E. Check out the Kenda KR25 ST145R12 Radial Trailer Tire and Wheel # AM31208 and the Kenda KR25 Radial Trailer Tire and Wheel # AM31208HWTB.

The Kenda Tire # AM10140 that you referenced is a load rang E, but we do not have a 4 on 4 inch wheel with the same capacity as most 4 on 4 inch hubs have capacities near 2,000 lbs.

While these wheels and tires have not been balanced with weights they have been lined up so that the heaviest part of the wheel has been lined up with lightest part of the tire so that they are as balanced as they can be without weights. Typically this setup works for people, but you might also want to have the tires balanced at a wheel shop.

Hey Bryan, that's a good question. The pricing can definitely be misleading, but I wouldn't use it to judge the quality of the tire. A lot of that comes down to promotions, inventory, and whether you're looking at a tire by itself or…

Answer 6

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…

The two sizes you mentioned are pretty similar and fit many of the same 15 inch wheels. The 205/75-15 fits rim widths of 5 inch to 6 inch whereas the 225/75-15 fits widths that are 5 inch to 6-1/2 inch. The 205 is 27.1 inches tall and the 225 is 28.4…
