The 20.5x8-10 size tires on your pontoon boat trailer are an older tire size that is comparable to the 205/65-10 tire size. We do carry 205/65-10 tires to replace your 20.5x8-10 tires, but you will first need to determine the weight capacity of your axle. This will ensure that you choose a set of tires that are rated for the same weight as your axle.

In this size we have load range B tires, that have a capacity of 910 lbs, load range C tires that have a capacity of 1,100 pounds, load range D tires that have a capacity of 1,330 pounds and load range E tires, that have a capacity of 1,650 pounds each. Add two tire capacities together to match your trailers axle capacity or gross weight.
