This tire has a 1-year worry-free guarantee. If within the first 12 months the tire is damaged in any way, it will be replaced at no charge.
Radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway. The cords on a radial tire are positioned at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel so that they lay across the width of the tire from wheel lip to wheel lip. This construction prevents the cords from rubbing against one another when the tire flexes, unlike the cords on a bias ply tire. As a result, radial tires have less rolling resistance and heat buildup, which leads to a longer tread life and improved steering at higher speeds.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
Measuring the distance from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 radial trailer tire in a load range C, and it's mounted on this 15 inch black mesh aluminum wheel with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. Now, this tire wheel assembly is ideal for stock trailers, utility trailers, and even campers. The wheel is a Sendel Series T17 aluminum wheel and it is a mesh style design wheel that has a nice matte black finish to it. The front and even the back of the wheel are clear coated for protection. Now, if you notice that the center cap is not included.
If you do want a center cap, we do sell them separately on our website. You do wanna make sure to get a center cap that has the same diameter as this pilot hole in the wheel 'cause when you install your center cap, it will go through this hole. The diameter on this pilot hole is 3.75 inches. The wheel itself, the diameter is 15 inches. The width on just the wheel is six inches wide.
And this wheel does have a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inches. And if you wanna measure that on a wheel that's an odd number of lugs, like in this case five, all you do is pick any one of the holes, let's say this one, and then you'll measure across to either this hole across from it or this hole. But when you measure, it's from the center of the starting hole to the furthest edge of the hole that you measure to. So on this wheel, it'll measure 4-1/2 inches. So that means this is a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
This does use a wheel lug size of a half inch by 20. The weight capacity on this wheel is 3,750 pounds. Now, the tire that's on this is a Kenda Karrier special trailer radial tire, and it is a special trailer design. So it couples the strength of a bias tire with the durability and stability of a radial tire. And it is created specifically for trailers.
It's not intended for use on any other vehicles. They do use double steel belts and then full nylon plies to combine for superior function and long life. If you look at the tread design, it's a nice computer-generated tread, uses premium rubber compound materials to give you superior traction in wet or dry conditions. The tire size, which will be stamped on the sidewall, if you look around by the rim, it'll say ST for special trailer 205/75R15. And the R means it is a radial tire. Section width on this is eight inches. Overall diameter from the bottom to the very top when it's inflated is 27 inches. This tire is a load range C, which means it's a six ply rated tire. Has a maximum load capacity of 1,820 pounds at 50 PSI. And the last thing I do wanna mention, most all your new trailer tires are coming through with speed ratings on them and they stamp it on the sidewall, but they do use a letter designation. On this one, if you look right after the tire size, you'll see two numbers for the load index and then the letter M stamped on there. Speed rating M will mean this has an 81 mile per hour speed rating. And this assembly does meet the DOT Department of Transportation specifications. But that should do it for the review on this Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 radial trailer tire in a load range C mounted on this 15 inch black mesh aluminum wheel.
