What is the Speed Rating for the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Tire # AM10140

Question:

I’m looking to purchase a 12” tire for my pontoon to replace the 10” that has a speed rating of 65 MHP hoping to get a higher speed rating. I’m looking at the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E Item # AM10140 Question 1: What is the speed rating of this tires? Question 2: Do you have a Galvanized Wheel for it? Question 3: If the speed rating is 65 MPH, do you have a 12” tire with a higher speed rating and load range E?

I spoke with my contact at Kenda who confirmed that the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10140 does has an 81 MPH speed rating, this has now been updated on the product page.

If you prefer a galvanized wheel, you can use the Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel - 12" x 4" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized Finish # AM20134. However, I would recommend an aluminum wheel like # LH45FR instead. Aluminum will hold up better than galvanized when exposed to water.
