The mirrors attach per the instructions, but the part of the mirror housing that goes over the existing mirror does not fit securely to the housing of the existing mirror. I have nylon tie-wraps squeezing my extended mirror frames to make them catch the existing mirror housing to maintain the clamp effect for the tightening mechanism.

I purchased both right and left mirrors from etrailer.com, along with a hitch. I was surprised that the shipment arrived a day earlier than the the expedited arrival date I was quoted - for no additional fee! I installed the mirrors-using all included parts-and took the truck for a test drive. There was some vibration in the add-on mirrors, but not anything like what I was lead to expect. Maybe some of the other users didn't apply the sticky backed cloth, or didn't align the slot in the brace with the tab in the mirror case properly. I took the time to look at it closely and I'm very pleased, except for the minor vibration. I did screw the retainer screws all the way down to the bottom-with no cracking or splitting of anything-and the add-on mirrors seem to work just fine. Thank you etrailer for your service and CIPA for a well engineered, inexpensive set of mirrors.



by:

Great service – shipped fast – good tracking – good price. Seem to fit very well with no vibration on a test drive. They have to be better than the ones with the rubber straps I have been using. Will know more after first long trip.



by:

Good - mirrors don't really fit the stock Dodge Durango mirror, but stay on. Hard to adjust to get best view and vibrate some - but they do extend the visual range and help with the bind spots.



by:

Product works great. It's just what I need. Easy to put on and take off. I recommend it to to anyone needing extended pickup truck mirrors.

I have 1999 Dodge Ram 1500.. The mirrors fit great and look good and they also fold in real nice .The plastic screw the plastic screw hole should be steel or aluminum so they don't strip or strip out.Also it would make the mirrors sturdier for clapping.

  • Recommended Tire Size and Load Range for a Dutchman Voltage 20K Toy Hauler with 235/80R16 LR E Tires
    I can help explain the difference in Load Range E to F for your Toy Hauler. You would benefit going from Load Range E to a Load Range F like the Kenda # AM10501, you were looking at. The overall capacity would increase from 21,120lbs to 23,760lbs, the maximum psi would increase from 80psi to 95psi which would cause the tire to sit off the ground and more onto the tread which is the part of the tire you want to be making contact with the pavement. They will also have a higher ply rating...

  • Difference in Size Between 235/85-16 and 225/90-16 Trailer Tires
    A 235/85R16 trailer tire such as the Karrier # AM10501 will be 31.7" in diameter and 9.3" wide while a 225/90-16 trailer tire - which is a size we do not carry - measures 31.9" in diameter and 8.9" wide. I have added a link to a video review of this tire for you to check out.

  • Trailer Tires for a 17,000 Pound, 45 Foot Horse Trailer with Living Quarters
    If the trailer has three 8K Dexter axles on it then you will want to have tires that combined meet the 24,000 pound capacity. You didn't mention the size tires you have now but you were looking at # AM10501 which is a 235/85-16 rated for 3,960 pounds at 110 psi. Six of these tires would have a capacity of 23,760 pounds which is very close to that 24,000 pound combined axle capacity and would work fine if the trailer weighs 17,000 pounds. Kenda and Karrier are the same. Provider is a Taskmaster...

  • Can the Load Capacity of a Trailer Tire Increase by Driving at a Slower Speed
    The load capacity of this tire is fixed and cannot be increased by driving at a lower highway speed.. If you are using the Kenda Karrier, # AM10501, tire , then the tire is inflated to the max psi listed on the tire. In this case, 110 psi. At 110 psi the tire has a weight capacity of 3,960 lbs. This capacity does not fluctuate on how fast you are traveling. At 100 mph or at 5 mph the weight capacity is still 3,960 lbs at the max psi.. I have attached an article that explains some frequently...

  • Trailer Tires Keep Blowing Out on a 2006 Keystone Cougar 314EFS 5th Wheel Trailer
    An ST225/75R15 load range E trailer tire, such as # AM10303, is rated for 2,830 pounds at 80 psi. On a tandem axle 5th wheel trailer with 4 of these tires, that equals 11,320 pounds which is about 300 pounds under the gross trailer weight. Trailer manufacturers calculate that some of the trailer weight will be carried by the truck to account for the difference in the weight of the trailer and the axle/tire capacities. But what can happen is if the trailer is riding high in the front, less...

  • Will a Tire With a Higher Load Rating Increase Weight Bearing Capacity of Fifth Wheel Trailer
    Keep in mind that your trailer capacity will be limited by the capacity of the lowest-rated component. So if your tires are rated higher than your axle, you'll still be limited by the axle capacity. The Kenda Karrier # AM10501 tire carries an F load rating. It's rated at 3960 lbs at 110 psi. This tire is 31.6 inches in diameter, only about 1 inch larger in diameter than the tire you have so it should fit just fine. I've linked you to our Trailer Tire FAQ article that I hope you'll find...

  • Troubleshooting Reasons for Trailer Tire Failure
    Pressure wise you are fine. You always want to keep trailer tires inflated to their max psi. Inflating them when they are cold is recommended even though the pressure will increase as they warm up. Typically failure is related to heat build up which can come from under-inflation, overloading, or exceeding the speed rating for the tire. Most trailer tires are rated at 65 miles per hour as their max speed so you would want to check the sidewalls of the tire. It could also be related to...

  • Help Determining Axle Location for 18 Foot Long Tandem Axle Trailer
    The 60/40 axle placement figure is a really great starting point but it doesn't always end up being the exact best spot for the center axle hanger of a tandem axle. But to help with your question on an 18 foot trailer 60 percent back from the ball center would be 10.8 feet from the coupler back. This would be where to attach the center hanger between the two axles. To take that further you really need to place the axles so that the trailer ends up with 10 to 15 percent of total weight as...

  • Can 225/75-16 Tires be Replaced with ST235/80-16 Tires on 2001 Carriage Cameo 30R 5th Wheel Trailer
    A 225/75-16 is not a standard trailer tire size. It may be a light truck or passenger vehicle tire size. Always make sure you are using trailer tires (indicated by an ST in front of the tire size). A 225/75-16 will be 30.184 inches in diameter and 8.865 inches wide. The larger ST235/80-16 is 30.9 inches in diameter and 9.259 inches wide. You would need to make sure that there is enough clearance above and at the back of the existing tires for the larger size. Both tires will fit on the...

  • Changing From a 235/80-16 Trailer Tire to a 235/85-16 Trailer Tire
    For starters, a 235/85-16 tire is going to be .9" in diameter larger than a 235/80-16 tire. This means that you will need an additional .45" of clearance between the tire and fender on each side of the trailer in order for this new size to work for you. They both have a 9.3" width so there will be no change here. The old 235/80-16 tire is not going to be good to use as a spare as there is almost an inch difference in diameter which will cause some issues on your trailer if used in conjunction...

  • Reasons for Trailer Tire Failure
    Tire failure is usually caused by a few things. It can be from overloading the trailer, improper tire inflation, and/or exceeding the speed rating for the tire. You should verify that the tire capacity you have for you trailer is adequate for how much your trailer weighs. The pressure ran in the tires makes a big difference in longevity too.

Your current 235/85/16 tires have an LT stamping, which indicates that it is a light truck tire. The ST on the Kenda # AM10501 indicates that it is a Special Trailer tire.

  • Best Replacement Tire Recommendation for Size 235/85-16
    We have the Kenda Carrier trailer tire part # AM10501 which is a size of ST235/85R16 that would be an excellent option. It has M speed rating which means it could handle speeds of up to 81 mph without failing and comes with a two- year warranty.. As long as you keep the tire inflated to it's max psi rating of 110 and stay under it's weight capacity of 3,960 lbs this will work great.

  • Can ST235/80R16 Tire Be Used as a Spare on 5th Wheel That Has ST235/85R16 Tires
    Both of the trailer tire sizes you referenced, ST235/80R16 and ST235/85R16, fit the same wheel sizes. Both will fit 16-inch wheels with widths of 6-, 6-1/2-, 7- and 7-1/2-inches. The dimension that differs between these two tires is their overall diameter when they are inflated to their rated pressures. ST235/80R16 tires will have an overall diameter of approximately 30.9-inches while a fully-inflated ST235/85R16 tire's overall diameter will be approximately 31.6-inches. The other difference...

    Yes, this Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10501 will work on your 16 inch by 7 inch trailer wheel. This tire size is good for the following wheel widths, 6, 6-1/2, 7, 7-1/2 inch. I attached an FAQ article on tire sizes for you to check out also.

  • Can I Use an ST235/85r16 Trailer Tire In Place of ST235/80r16
    There's really only about 3/4" difference between the diameter of an ST235/80r16 and an ST235/85r16 like the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range F # AM10501, so the difference is negligible. You'll want to make sure you don't already have wheel clearance issues on your trailer but in most cases you should be able to swap without issue.

  • Can Light Truck Tires be Used on Fifth Wheel Trailer?
    Though you can use light truck tires on a fifth wheel trailer it is highly recommended you use trailer tires instead; trailer tires have an "ST" on them and are specifically designed with a stronger sidewall which allows both a higher weight capacity and higher air pressure. For example, if you have a tandem axle fifth wheel and 16 inch wheels a great option would be the Kenda Karrier # AM10501, which have a load rating of F, which means four of these inflated to 110 psi would be able...

  • Recommended Replacement ST235/80R16 Tires for 5th-Wheel Trailer
    Trailer tire failure is usually a result of excess heat, which can arise from a variety of potential causes. The first important factor to always consider is the inflation of your trailer tires. A tire that is under or over-inflated will build up more internal heat. You should always make sure that all of the tires on your trailer are inflated to their maximum cold psi pressure as listed on the tire sidewall. Next, you always want to make sure you are not overloading the tire with more...

    According to my research it looks like you have a Towmax tire and while we don't carry this brand, I did reach out to them directly and they said there should be 3 groupings of numbers/letters after the "DOT" on your tire sidewall. The TBT1 will be in the middle ad the 3rd group will have 4 digits that correspond to the date of the tire. This is typical for tires and even ones we carry, like part # AM10501, have this as well. The first 2 digits are the week of the year and the last 2 digits...
