Speed Rating for Trailer Tires
Updated 09/03/2014 | Published 09/01/2014
Question:
Ive been lookinf at the Kendra 205x65x10 Tires I realize you have them in B,C, and D load rating. What I cant seem to find anywhere your website or anybodies is an indication of speed rating. Whats the max speed rating for this size tire?
asked by: Bruce T
Helpful Expert Reply:
The speed rating for all trailer tires unless otherwise noted is 65 miles per hour. However, the rating of part # AM3H390 that you referenced is actually 81 mph.
If you exceed 81 mph, heat could build up in the tire and cause it to break down and fail.
I attached an FAQ article on trailer tires for you to check out as well.
