Recommended Spare Tire Cover to Provide Maximum Coverage of Rear of Tire

Question

Question:

Looking for a cover for a spare on a boat 24inch diameter 6inch width I want a cover to actually cover both sides of the tire to protect from sun. The on I recently purchases barley covers the tread on the inside. Do you offer a tire spare cover that would acutely cover all of the rubber?

I may have a solution for you, but I'm not sure that such a tire cover truly exists. However, the Camco Vinyl Spare Tire Cover - 24" Diameter - Arctic White # CAM45348 does seem to do a pretty good job of covering the rear of the tire as well as the front. I've linked a photo we took of this cover for you to check out as it might provide you a good idea of how much coverage it will provide.

This cover is also available in black with the Camco Vinyl Spare Tire Cover - 24" Diameter - Black # CAM45260.

Hey Adrian! The higher capacity for the B&W #BW47BR and Curt #C77MJ comes from the construction. The B&W hitch weighs 45 lbs and then the Curt and Trailer Mate #TMT54FR both weigh 32 lbs. The Trailer Mate does sit just a tad higher compared…

Yes, you can go back with the same Westlake ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire #LHWL101 as it is a tire you have experience with and know they are good for your use. I do recommend changing out the tires every 5 years or sooner if you notice any dry rot…

Trailer tire failure usually comes from heat, and excessive heat in a tire can arise from several potential causes. One is inflation; a tire that is under- or over-inflated will build up more internal heat. A second common cause is overloading the…

Answer 4

A 175/80-13 tire is designed to be mounted onto a 13" wheel and a 5.30 x 12 tire is designed to be mounted onto a 12" wheel. Therefore, no you can not replace 175/80-13 tires with 5.30 x 12 tires on the same wheel. With that being said, you…

Answer 5

Hey Michael, so the tire size of 185/80-13 is going to be 1.1 inches wider than the size you have now so based on the amount of clearance you mentioned the part #LHWL101 would easily fit without clearance issues.

6 years is the accepted age that a trailer tire should be replaced at. Going to a radial 175/80R13 would be a great choice too as they ride better and can handle higher speeds. Best option is the part #LHWL101. It has a 75 mph speed rating and a 2…

Answer 7

Radials are basically superior to bias-ply tires in every way so whenever available we always recommend people go that route. The closest tire size we have to what you listed is the size ST175/80R13 like the part #LHWL101. This tire has a capacity of…

Answer 8

It sounds like you have a bias-ply tire (D) on one side and a radial tire (R) on the other side of your trailer. You should match the tire type on both sides of the trailer regardless of the type you go with. I recommend using radial tires on the…

The Adco Spare Tire Cover #290-1758 will fit tires up to 25-1/2-inches in overall diameter, but since your ST205/75/R14 trailer tires are a bit larger at about 26-1/4-inches you will be better off with a slightly larger cover such as the Adco 27-inch…

I have a couple potential solutions for your ST175/80R-13/6 which is a 24" tire. All of our spare tire covers are designed the same way, which is with an elastic band that slides over the tire and around the back side of the tire. This…

Answer 12

A 205/75R15 trailer tire, when inflated, measures 27.1 inches in diameter and 8.5 inches wide, so you'll need a cover that will fit those dimensions. So instead of a cover for a 26 inch spare tire, you'll need a cover for a 27 inch tire, and…
