Question:
What lug nuts would you recommend using with the Kenda Karrier KR35 ST215/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 14 Gunmetal Aluminum Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2. The lugs from my previous wheel look like they are too small.

Hey Andy, happy to help!
For the Kenda Karrier KR35 ST215/75R14 Tire with 14" Gunmetal Aluminum Wheel # KE44JV, you'll want 1/2"-20 lug nuts. Because the aluminum wheel is thicker and the lug holes are recessed, I recommend using a longer lug nut rather than the shorter ones used with steel wheels.
A good choice is the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut # AM90049. It's 1/2"-20, measures 1-3/4" long, and has a 3/4" outer diameter, giving you enough length to get a socket securely onto the lug nut inside the recessed holes of the aluminum wheel.
What trailer are you putting the new Kenda wheels on?
