Hey Glen,
There are 5.30-12 tires on a galvanized, 5-lug rim that are 8-ply, but none that are 10 ply. If that's ok, you can go with the Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range D # AM30861.
If you want a 12 inch tire that is 10 ply you'd have to go with a different size, 145R12; this doesn't come in a combo, so you'd need to get the tire and wheel (and valve stem) separate, and what you'd need is the following:
- Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10140
- Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel - 12" x 4" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized Finish # AM20134
- Americana High Pressure Rubber Snap-In Valve Stem # AM20904

Hey Glen, did you end up going with the 8-ply Kenda 5.30-12 tire and wheel combo or the 10-ply setup with the separate tire and rim? Knowing which option worked best for your boat trailer could help others looking for the same fit.
