Difference Between Kenda AM1ST51 & Loadstar AM1ST76 ST175/80D13 Trailer Tires
Question:
I am interested in your trailer tires ST175/80D13. I see you have 2 tires made by Kenda...AM1ST51 and AM1ST76. Can you please tell me what the difference is for the price? I tried to compare but really couldnt see a big difference for the price difference. Thank you very much.

Helpful Expert Reply:
You were right that there is very little difference between the two ST175/80D13 trailer tires you mentioned, which are the following:
- Kenda ST175/80D13 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST51
- Loadstar ST175/80D13 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST76
The only difference really is the tread, and I have added a photo for you showing the different tread patterns of both tires. The Kenda has straight grooves running along the tire, so it will be slightly better for wetter conditions; so if you live in an area with heavy rainfall I recommend going with the Kenda, but otherwise either is a fine option.
I have added links below to video reviews of both tires for you to check out as well if you'd like to take a look.
