Review of the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads for 1/2-Ton, 3/4-Ton, and 1-Ton Trucks Video

Trailer tire Load Range is a way to organize tires by weight capacity. The higher the Load Range the higher the weight capacity will be. The actual capacities varies by tire size though so it's hard to be more specific than that unless you…

The bias ply tires and radial tires in size 175/80-13 in a load range D are going to have the same capacity: 1,610 pounds at 65 psi. The radial is #AM10210 and the bias is #AM1ST77. You will want to match or exceed the trailer capacity and I do not…

I went and pulled a Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Black Mod Wheel #AM32424 from our warehouse to determine the weight capacities and found that on the sidewall it was stamped Load Range D with a 2,150 lb capacity at…

When the option is available, I always recommend going with a radial tire versus a bias-ply. The ride quality will be noticeably smoother and more stable. Radial tires do a better job shedding heat, and since excessive heat is the number one reason…

Since wheels will be able to withstand the psi rating of any of the tires that are meant to fit it you will need to look at the valve stem as that is the deciding factor. If your valve stem has the rubber all the way up to the threads, like part…

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13…

Even though I cannot comment specifically on the grease you used because I am not familiar with it, I can tell you the best grease for trailer bearings is a a grease with a rating of GC-LB, which just means it is made to withstand very high…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…

Good morning, Cliff. As of today (3/27/24) we are expecting the #KE33JR tire/wheel combo to be in stock in about 2 weeks. Hopefully this means we can take our own pictures and put them on the site within maybe about 3-4 weeks from now. What I can…

It sounds like you are speaking of the wires for the brake magnets. If this is correct, you will need to connect one of the wires to the brake controller output wire on your trailer connector and the other wire will need to be grounded to a clean…
