Hey Edwin, the trailer wheel and tire combos we offer like the Kenda Karrier KR53 ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Silver Mod Wheel # KE35EV are not balanced as generally trailer wheel and tire combos don't get balanced. As an alternative we have balance beads like with the part # CA66VR.
Have you been able to feel an unbalanced trailer wheel when towing?
