Hey Mike. The Kenda Karrier KR53 ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Black Aluminum Wheel item # KE63JV comes mounted and ready to install. However, it is not balanced and this is common amongst trailer tires. Trailer tires are lug-centric instead of hub-centric so they're more difficult to balance and require special equipment.
We do have the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads item # CA66VR that you can add to each wheel that will balance the tire while you are driving. They are also available as a 4 Pack item # CA83VR if you are doing all 4 wheels on a tandem axle trailer.
What kind of trailer do you have?
