Question:

Hi i bought Kenda Karrier KR35 ST185/80R13 LRD Radial Trailer Tire w/ 13inch Black AM03 Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2. I am using it for a crestliner fishhawk 1600 that weighs probably little under 2k lbs. What do I keep the psi at on these tires?

Hello Tony,

Thanks for writing in!

You will want to keep your Kenda Karrier KR35 ST185/80R13 Load Range D tires # KE54TJ inflated to 65 psi when they are cold. At 65 psi, each tire has a 1,710 lb capacity.

Even though your Crestliner Fish Hawk 1600 and trailer are well under what these tires can handle, you will still want to run them at the full 65 psi listed on the tire. Check the pressure before you head out while the tires are cold, since it is completely normal for the pressure to increase once you get rolling and the tires warm up.

What are you usually fishing for with your Crestliner, and what body of water mostly? I have a littler Ranger and am still chasing a 10 pound bass, I am starting to realize this may not happen here in Missouri, so I will be trying in South Carolina in the Spring =)
