What Are The Torque Specs And PSI Rating For Kenda 5.30-12 Galvanized?
Updated 04/21/2021 | Published 04/20/2021
Question:
Hi, I recently purchased two Kenda 5.30-12 tires with 12inch galvanized wheels, just wondered what to set my torque wrench at for installation. Also, do you recommend to inflate these fully to 80lbs? Many thanks, appreciated!

It looks like your Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range C # AM30850 uses 1/2" lug bolts/nuts. If this is correct, then the correct torque specs would be 75-85 ft.-lb. If you are using something other than 1/2" lug bolts/nuts then use the chart I attached which shows the various torque specs.
It is recommended to inflate trailer tires to the max psi, in this case, 80psi. If the tires are under-inflated then you could risk a blow out and the weight rating will also be lowered to an unknown number.
