Hello Rogelio,
Thank you for the information, I was able to find the tire and wheel combo you bought, it is a 12" x 4" wheel. The Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10140 is going to be your best fit, and it was the one you were looking at.
This tire is going to give you a maximum load capacity of 1,520 lbs at 80 psi, and has a speed rating M of 81 MPH.
What kind for trailer are you putting these on that you needed to bump up the load rating?

Hey Rogelio, how did the Kenda Karrier S-Trail tires work out on your trailer? Did the higher load rating give you the support you were looking for? Your update could make it easier for others choosing between Load Range D and E tires.
