Recommended Replacement Tire and Wheel for ST175/70R/13 and 5 Lug Wheel
Updated 04/24/2023 | Published 04/23/2023
Question:
Hello, I am looking to replace the tires and wheels on my utility trailer. The current tires are ST175/70R/13 5 lugs. However the lug to mid point on the opposite side seem to measure 4.25 inches and not 4.5 inches. Is there a 5 lug / 4.25 in wheel?

To replace your ST175/70R/13 and 5 lug wheels I recommend the following:
- Kenda Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Black Mod Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR D # AM31990
I really like this setup because of the higher load range D rating (1,650 lbs at 70 psi), the 81 mph speed rating, and the sleek black wheel.
I've never heard of a 5 on 4-1/4" bolt pattern but it may be that you're measuring from the centers of the bolt holes instead of from the center to the farthest edge of opposite bolt holes (see attached). Go ahead and double check your bolt hole pattern and if it truly is 5 on 4-1/4" we may want to look into new hubs that have the 5 on 4-1/2" standard bolt pattern.
