Hey, did the 65‑mph speed rating on the Kenda K371 trailer tire meet your towing needs? Knowing how it performed could help others looking for similar tires.

Answer 1

You are correct and I do have a tire for you. However, you don't want to use the Kenda Loadstar K371 Bias Trailer Tire - 4.80/4.00-8 item #AM10002 on the highway at 70 mph. Instead you will want the Kenda K371 Bias Trailer Tire - 4.80/4.00-8 -…

A BT8 spindle would have a diameter of .99 of an inch where the bearings would both install and would have a diameter of 1.24 where the great seal would ride. That would require a hub part #AKIHUB-440-2-1K for an idler hub. A BTR spindle would have…

The BTR and BT8 denotations refer to the spindle, not the trailer hub. The difference between a BTR and BT8 spindle is that the BTR spindle uses a 1.063" diameter L44649 bearing and the BT8 spindle uses a 0.99" diameter L44643 bearing. In…

I assume you are referring to size 5.70-8 trailer tires as there isn't a size 8 x 570, and the highest speed rating for 5.70-8 trailer tires is 65 mph. There are a pair of size 5.70-8 trailer tires, and you only need to choose from the load…

Answer 6

For that size tire, 4.80 X 8, I recommend the Kenda tire, #AM10004. This tire has the Load C rating and fits the 8 inch x 3-3/4 inch rim. Using the heavier load range could extend the life of this tire. The Kenda tire is a bias tire that tend to run…

Answer 7

The only downsides to going with a higher rated trailer tire than needed is that you most likely will pay more for it and you'll have to inflate them to a higher psi which is slightly more effort but not a huge deal. I do not know what tire size…

Answer 8

Hi Hector; to get that higher speed rating you will need to move up to a 12" tire. The only potential issue is the loss of clearance when compared to your current tires. If you have a 4 on 4 bolt pattern you can use the #AM35351DX and for 5 on…

Answer 9

It sounds like you meant that your current tire is 4.80/4.00-8. With this tire size you have indicated you have a 4 on 4 bolt pattern. The right tire for your trailer is one that fits the 3-3/4 inch rim width. In the 4.80/4.00-8 size the Kenda Load…

Load range B trailer tires are going to have a lower capacity than C load range tires. Basically that, psi rating, and the ply rating are the only differences. A higher load range tire would last a little longer than lower load ranges of the same…

Answer 11

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…

Answer 12

We have several different tire sizes that fit on 8 inch wheels but they all have the same 65 MPH speed rating. They're all bias Kenda tires and I've linked video reviews of each of them for you. #AM10002 is 4.80/4.00-8 - Load Range B #AM10004…
