Recommended Spare Tire for a Ironton Trailer
Updated 04/09/2024 | Published 04/08/2024 >
Question:
Im looking for a spare tire for an Ironton 5x8 trailer I bought from Northern Tool. This tire matches all the specs on the trailer tires except for psi. The tires on the trailer have the same load rating, but at 60 psi. Can I use this wheel/tire for a spare even though it calls for 80 psi?

Yes, you can! So long as our Kenda Loadstar 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" White Wheel item # AM30820 is the same size and bolt pattern as what's on your Ironton trailer it can be used not only as a spare but also on your trailer with the stock tires.
The Kenda item # AM30820 has a 12" diameter x 4" wide wheel with a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2". The tire is a 5.30-12, with a section width of 5.6", and an outer diameter of 21.9".

My only concern is the outer diameter. I'm not sure I'm properly measuring the ones I have but I'm not coming up with 21.9". I contacted Northern Tool, the tire tire they recommend for a spare also has an outer diameter of 21.9. So I think I'll be ok with this one. I'll order from you when I get to that point. Thanks.
