Taskmaster Radials

Taskmaster radials have double polyester cords and double steel belts for increased durability and endurance. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation. Taskmaster radials are bake tested - a process usually reserved for automotive tires - to ensure that the rubber holds up over time.


Radial tire vs bias tire graphic

The standard tread on this tire has solid, continuous ribs, and there are very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. This tire is designed for use on trailers, so it doesn't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.


Radial Tires vs. Bias Tires

Radial tire vs bias tire graphic

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.

Thanks for the nice message! Have not had the trailer out much since the new tires, but I felt like there was a smoother ride and less jumping from the trailer with them on. I'll try to send an update from my next adventure!

Had one last only 300 miles. Went through taskmaster warranty and did not get the same tire replacement. Did not have same tire.

Let me get this information over to our customer service department for them to see what we can do to further assist you.

No issues yet. Used in lightweight trailer usually pulled behind a motorcycle. Nice to find heavy trailer tires rated for 81mph.

Still working great, no issues.

GREAT UPGRADE FROM WHAT CAME WITH THE TRAILER,THESE ARE HIGHWAY RATED UNLIKE
WHAT CAME WITH THE DK2 TRAILER AND BLEW OUT..OVERALL GREAT TIRE



by:

These tires and wheels made a huge difference in the trailer tracking. Rather than a constant vibration from the older bias ply tires that I couldn’t get balanced properly, I mounted your set and almost forgot I was pulling it. Very smooth and sporty looking. Highly recommend this setup.



by:

E-trailer is the best for selection and quality. I needed new tires for my utility trailer, and they had the best selection and prices, plus their description aids in determining what is best for your use.

After a year, I couldnt be happier. Great price and great product.



by:

Purchased the Taskmaster radial to replace the four year old Carlisle bias ply. One of the old tires had a bulge. It seems they were rated to 60 MPH. In fairness I was pulling my boat above 70 most of the time. The Taskmaster is rated to 75 MPH. They are not quite as wide but I ordered the identical size as the old tires. It should be noted the service was amazing. I ordered on a Sunday night and they arrived on Wednesday. Free shipping in deluxe cardboard boxes. If the tire are as good as the service I'll be in great shape.

The tires are excellent. Very smooth compared to the factory installed tires. Most of the time you cannot detect a boat trailer behind the vehicle. Would buy only radials going forward.



by:

I put 2600 miles at 70+ mph with no issues. Performing as advertised.

The tires are holding up well. No issues. Over 8000 miles on the interstate.



by:

Received the tires I ordered in a matter of days. Well packaged in a sturdy box. Couldn’t be more pleased with the help from the techs at etrailer and the ease of the purchasing and delivery. Easier than driving all over town looking for the right tire and purchasing locally.

I’ve put over 6,000 miles on the trailer tires I mounted on my Escapade motorcycle trailer in the past year. Couldn’t be more pleased with the tires, even wear across the tires, maintains pressure. I pull the trailer at highway speeds, often at 75 to 80 mph.



by:

If you drive on the interstate you need these.



by:

I bought the highest cost highest speed rated tires for my light 4x8 utility trailer. Folks drive fast in Michigan, our 4 seasons are short, so we need to move quickly. These tires have had the grip I needed and I would buy them again.



by:

These have been the best tires I have purchased for my small light weight pop up camper. Tire Discounters sold me pair before these that were not radial that blew in their only second year use. I haven’t had an issue and see little wear.

I want to return you guys told me theses tires were made in usa there made in china I want my money back howcan I return

For our site if is part is made in the US, we have made in USA on the product page. I will have our customer service team reach out to you.



by:

I replaced my standard boat trailer bias tires after driving from Ontario to Florida with these radial steel belted beauties. They have a highway rating of 81 MPH which blow the bias tires out of the water. I don't have a low speed bounce anymore and less damage to the interior storage areas of the boat. Great change.



by:

1,000+ miles, including long stints at 70 mph, with no issues. Would purchase again.



by:

I ordered the tires to upgrade my utility trailer to be able to haul my harley Ultra classic (900 pounds) at hwy speeds if I ever have to. The order was delivered a day before it was supposed to be and it was in a very well protected shipping box. The service was outstanding.



by:

Great product and exceptional service to go along with the purchase! I purchased this tire because it was a radial and it has the extended speed rating. No problems at all pulling my pop up camper at 70+MPH.

The purchase and customer support and communication with this sale was five-star!!



by:

A friend turned me onto etrailer and have used them ever since. Great products and great service including fast shipping with tracking number, what more could you ask for !



by:

There are so many cheap, imported tires. I was looking for something sturdy, radial, and USA made. Worth the extra money.
Also, I was expecting to see these arrive simply strapped together, but they were carefully placed in a box. Nice detail, thank you.



by:

Great tyres !
My trailer rolls easier
on radials. With basic tyre tools, They are easy to DIY install.



by:

This was the only retailer that sold radial tires in the size for my boat trailer. I'm hoping they perform as advertised.



by:

Tires appear in good condition but haven’t had opportunity to install them yet due to problems with grease seal used in hub assembly kits that were purchased from etrailer



by:

Got the tires mounted, put them on my vintage 1992 coleman camper. These tires are worth the money.



by:

Great tires for my boat trailer. Put almost 4000 miles on this summer and have been very pleased with them



by:

Haven't had much chance to use yet, but I like the thought of travelling on radials vs. bias ply tires...especially in these smaller diameters.

  • Upgrading to 5.3R12 Tires on Harbor Freight Trailer
    Upgrading from your 4.8-12 size tires to radial 6 ply 5.30R12 units like the Taskmaster # TT53012C is a great idea for better traction and cooler operation on highways. The new tires will fit your existing wheels without a problem and there really isn't a need to replace your hub bearings unless your current bearings are damaged. I have attached a great article on replacing bearings that you can take a look at but unless you inspect them on your trailer and notice any nicks, dents, discolorations...

  • Best Option for Replacing 4.80-12 Trailer Tire With 5.30-12 Trailer Tire
    Although it is not the highest load rating, I recommend the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C # TT53012C for a replacement tire on your trailer. I would choose this tire over others since it is a radial tire which will be ideal for a long trip. The load range C means it has a maximum load of 1,050 lbs at 80 psi. It also has a speed rating of M for a maximum speed of 81 mph. In order to find out if this fits or not we can compare this to the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial...

  • Can I Order a 12 Aluminum Wheel and Have It Mounted To a Tire Speed Rated For 81MPH?
    You will have to mount the wheel and tire yourself or have it done at a tire shop as the wheel and tire combos we have come from the manufacturer. We have no way of mounting the tires in our facility. I have created a list of all our 12" aluminum wheels and tires with the 81mph speed rating you are looking for.

  • Recommended 12 Inch Tires Compatible With Highway Speeds for Haul Master Trailer
    As long as the manufacturer of your trailer doesn't have any caveats regarding running the trailer at 70-75 mph, the hubs/bearings are properly serviced at regular intervals and the tires you're using are properly speed rated, there's no reason why you can't stay with your current 5.30-12 tire size. If the 5.30-12 is the stock tire size, I'd recommend sticking with the tire size the trailer was designed to work with. You don't mention the load rating of your current tires, but if a load...

  • Taskmaster Radial Tire with M Speed Rating
    The tire you were looking at the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire item # TT53012C is the only 12" tire we have with an M speed rating. We do not have any tire wheel combos that will give you a speed rating of M in the 12" size. Our tire wheel combos do not come balanced and most trailer tires do not because they are not required to be. I have linked our selection of 12" 5 on 4 1/2" lug nut pattern wheels.

  • Solution For Needing Higher Speed Rated Trailer Tire Size 5.30-12
    We have trailer tires in the size of 5.30-12 that have a higher speed rating like the part # TT53012C but we do not have them mounted on a wheel. This tire is rated for 81 mph. So you could go with the tire and have them mounted on your current wheels or go with new wheels too and have them mounted locally like with # AM20153.

  • Can You Put The 13" Kenda Radial Tires On A Lowes Carry On Trailer
    You can put the 13" Kenda Radial Tires like the # AM10208 on a Lowes carry on trailer, provided the trailer uses a standard width 13" wheel which would be either 4.5" or 5" wide. You will also want to make sure there is room in the wheel well area for a tire 24.7" in diameter and 7.2" wide. As far as the stock tires, I am not sure exactly what kind of tire or exactly what size is currently on the trailer. Most of the trailer tires we carry, like the Kendas I mentioned, are to be inflated...

  • Tire to Replace 4.80-12 on 5 by 8 Trailer
    It would not honestly make it any more stable. You'd loose weight capacity, most likely speed rating, and ground clearance like you mentioned. Best option might be stick with what you have now and just make sure it's properly inflated. Otherwise since it looks like you have a 4.80-12 size to go with the next slightly larger size of 5.30-12 like part # TT53012C which would be slightly larger in width, diameter, and has an 81 mph speed rating.

  • Recommended 4-Lug Aluminum Wheel and Radial 5.30x12 Tire for Trailer
    I do have an option for you with an aluminum wheel in the Aluminum Split Spoke Trailer Wheel - 12" x 4" Rim - 4 on 4 part # AM22318HWT and radial tire in the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C but they are unfortunately not pre-mounted. That said, you could just take the two to a local tire shop and they will be able to mount them for you. This setup won't require longer wheel studs but it will require long style acorn lug nuts, the Chrome Trailer Wheel Lug Nut part # 12CLN.

  • 12 inch Trailer Wheel and Tire Recommendation with Bolt Pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inch
    I recommend a radial tire with an 81 mph speed rating. You can only get both of these attributes by purchasing the tire and wheel separately and having them mounted at a local shop upon arrival. I recommend the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C # TT53012C for the tire, and the Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 12" x 4" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Silver # TA79RR for the wheel.

  • Replacement Tires For Utility Trailer With Carlisle 5.30-12 Tires
    Yes, you need to change your tires on your utility trailer. I recommend using the # TT53012C to replace your Carlisle tires. Typically I do not recommend using tires older than 5 years old especially if they have sat outside for that amount of time. The sun and elements will rot the tread on the tire and while your tires might still hold air the tread will likely separate from the tire carcass if you were to drive on them being 16 years old. Do be sure to also change the spare tire if you...

  • What PSI Should My Trailer Tires Be Filled To When Towing?
    Unless otherwise noted from the tire manufacturer, you should run your tires at the full psi they are rated to. As an example, the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C # TT53012C is rated to 1,050 pounds at 80 psi and should therein be filled to 80 psi. This will keep the wear even and will extend the life of the tire. Under filling them will definitely cause them to run hotter and wear quicker or unevenly, which will reduce the life of the tire. This will also mean you...

This radial tire has a ply rating of 8 and has a 1,220 pound maximum load capacity at 65 psi.

  • Replacing Tire Size 4.80-12 with Larger Tire Size on Trailer
    For a tire size that's slightly larger than the size you have now of 4.80-12 that fits the same wheel size you have you'd want the 5.30-12 like the # TT53012C which will be right at 1.5 inches taller and .5 inches wider.

    Going to a larger diameter wheel and tire will give you a marginally improvement in terms of bounce. But most of the bounce comes from the less sophisticated suspension found on trailers. Since speed is a factor that you mentioned we have the 5.30-12 tire part # TT53012C which has an 81 mph speed rating. Unfortunately, this tire is sold separately and not mounted on a wheel. This is the only way to get the 81 mph speed rating in this size. There are many wheels from which to choose base...

    For your Jayco Pop-Up Camper I recommend replacing your existing tires with the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT53012C, which will provide improvements in a number of areas over your current set. Based on the issues you described you are most likely using bias ply tires that have a speed rating of 65 mph, which is the standard on most trailer tires.

Bias tires are meant more for off-road purposes like agriculture whereas the radial tires have a sidewall with more flex that can better dissipate the heat build-up than bias can.

    The 5.30 -12 Trailer Tires we offer vary in width between 5.4" and 5.5" depending on the manufacturer. The correct replacement will be based on load range. I recommend the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C which is 5.4" wide and has a load range c rating suited for use up to 1,050 lbs. This is actually the only radial tire in this size which means the tires will run cooler and last longer when compared to bias ply tires. If you are looking for a wheel/tire combo, the...

    The closest we have to what you're looking for is a 145/R12 size tire, Load Range E rated for up to 1,520 pounds at 80 psi, but its speed rating is only 65 mph. It's the only Load Range E tire we have at that size and we don't have any for a 13 inch rim. Another option that may work for you is tire # TT53012C. It's a 5.30R12 size which is about a 1/2 inch skinnier and a 1/*4 inch larger in diameter. It does have an 81 mph speed rating however it's only rated for 1,050 pounds as a Load...

  • High Speed Rating Trailer Tire Recommendation to Fit 12 inch Wheel
    Lighter capacity trailer hubs won't have big enough wheel mounting flanges to allow a wheel with a larger diameter to fit. Your best option is to stick with the size you have and go with a tire that has a higher speed rating like the part # TT53012C that you referenced. A larger wheel and tire won't benefit you too much. It most likely would require you to go with new fenders and would raise the trailer up higher which would require a taller ball mount as well.

  • Taskmaster 5.30R-12 Spare Tire With a Galvanized Steel Wheel 5 On 4-1/2" Lug Pattern
    Your trailer hubs are most likely lug centric and not hub centric. If you have tapered lug nuts that hold on your wheels then you have a lug centric hub and the pilot hole diameter will be okay being larger. Mixing your load range should not be an issue since you are going larger. The higher load rating will have a stiffer construction that will cause the tire to bounce more than absorb on bumps. As this is for a spare tire you will not be using it for long periods of time. You can...
