Question:

Im not sure if the ST175/80D13 will fill in the wheel space of my popup camper, I would like to increase the size from the 5.30.12. Im looking at the Loadstar ST175/80D13. Thank you,

The 175/80-13 tire measures 24" diameter x 6.6" wide whereas the 5.30-12 tire measures 21.9" diameter x 5.5" wide. Therefore, you will need to account for an increase in height of about 1" and width of about .5". We recommend at least 3" on top of the tire to the fender and 1" from the side of the tire to the frame.

I recommend going with the Loadstar ST175/80D13 Bias Trailer Tire with 13" White Wheel part # AM3S120.
