Question:
Greetings, I am interested in the 8 x 5 3/8 wheels that are 5 on 4 1/2 holes. Your number is AM20016. QUESTION: What tires do you recommend for these wheels? I would like to see 700+ lbs for weight rating. Thank you,

Expert Reply:
I have a solution for you to use an 8" wheel with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, but we don't carry any tires that fit with the 5-3/8" wheels like what you're looking at with the Americana # AM20016.
Instead I recommend using the Kenda 5.70-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel # AM30140 which uses a 3-3/4" wide wheel but has the 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and a Load Range C (910 lbs at 75 psi) which is more than enough for your weight rating.
