Replacement 4.80-12 Tires For Karavan Jet Ski Trailer

Updated 07/27/2022 | Published 07/26/2022

Question:

I am looking to buy a spare tire for my Karavan jetski trailer. I have a karavan jetski trailer with a current wheel size of 4.80-12. I looked online and measures and am pretty sure that I have a somewhat uncommon bolt pattern of 5 on 4-3/4. Do you sell any tires that fit this pattern and dimensions? If not, do you know where I can go to buy a spare tire? Thanks.

We do have 4.80-12 tires for your Karavan jet ski trailer, but not a wheel with a 5 on 4-3/4" bolt pattern (I wouldn't know where one can be found). You can mount the tire to your current wheel so you don't need a completely new wheel, you'd just have to take it to a tire shop and they can remove your old tire and put the new one on. The replacement 4.80-12 tire for your Karavan jet ski trailer is the following:

- Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT48012C

The # TT48012C is a load range C tire with a 990 lb per-tire capacity so it's enough for your jet ski trailer, is a radial tire which is best for standard road use (compared to the stiffer bias trailer tires), and has an 81 mph speed rating so traveling on the highway won't be an issue.
