Hey Darryl!
The Kenda Karrier KR53 ST205/75R14 Radial Tire with 14" Black Machined Aluminum Wheel # KE56JV is not balanced, but this is the norm for trailer tires/wheels.
Since these are for a trailer the tires don't have to be balanced (since that's more for performance), BUT we do have a solution with the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads Single Pack # CA66VR. The beads will end up on the opposite side of the heavy spot on the tire once you head down the road so the tire will essentially then become balanced without having to take it to a tire shop and have them do the work for you.
Are your other trailer tires balanced?

Hey Darryl, did you decide to try the tire balancing beads for your trailer tires? I'm curious to know how it worked out for you, as it could give others confidence when balancing their trailer tires.
