Question:

I purchased a ‘17 Acme car dolly EZE tow and want to replace the tires as well as add a spare. From what I gathered from your site, I need the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Load Range E AM10140. Does this tire come pre mounted on a wheel that will fit my application as a spare? If not, would the Dextar Steel Mini Mod trailer wheel with offset 12”x4” - 5 on 4 1/2 AM20165 work for a spare? Do you have any better solutions? Thank you! Jerry

Hey Jerry, thanks for reaching out. We do offer the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10140 pre mounted on a wheel. Take a look at the following:

- Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" Galvanized Spoke Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR D # AM31202

- Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR D # AM31199DX

We don't offer it pre mounted on a mini mod wheel like part # AM20165, but if you prefer that wheel, you can order the tires and wheel separately and have a local shop mount them for you. If you want to get them pre-mounted, I recommend the # AM31202. The galvanized wheels have great rust resistance, so they'll hold up great even in more harsh conditions.

What kind of vehicle do you usually tow on the dolly?

I plan to tow a 2019 Hyundai Elantra. The two pre-mounted options shown above are both load range D. Will that make much difference for a spare? Also the mini mod has an offset of -0.5”. Will that still work? Thanks!

@JerryG Load range D is fine to use as a spare. It's usually a good idea to have all of the tires the same load range. That way if you need to use the spare you can run with it long term without any negative side effects. The -0.5" offset is fine as long as all the wheels on the dolly match. You wouldn't want to do zero offset on the dolly wheels then have a spare with an offset. The negative offset moves the tire farther from the frame, so clearance won't be an issue. Just make sure everything matches and you'll be good.
