Question:
Hello. I am looking at a set of your Kenda trailer tire for my single axle boat trailer. My question is that I am thinking about changing from a load c to a load d tire. Will this cause any ride issues if I don’t have extra gear in the boat. Tire size is 175/80/13
asked by: Justin S
Expert Reply:
No, that won't cause any issues whatsoever. Especially since you are sticking with the same 175/80/R13 tire size. Unless you are wanting to change your wheels out as well, you'll want the Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D item # AM10210 over the item # AM31998 you were looking at. This is the exact same Kenda tire that comes with the wheel tire combo.

Hey, how did the switch to the Load Range D Kenda tires work out on your boat trailer? Did you notice any change in how it rides when it’s not loaded with extra gear? Your feedback could help others thinking about the same upgrade.
