Karrier S-Trail Radials with Automotive-Grade Tread

Kenda Karrier S-Trail Tread Vs Standard Tread

Unlike standard trailer tire tread, which has solid, continuous ribs, the automotive-grade, computer-generated tread on these Karrier S-Trail radials has ribs with breaks. These breaks allow water to run off to the sides. The Karrier S-Trail tread also has sipes. Siping is a process in which thin grooves (or sipes) are cut into the rubber of the tire. The grooves channel water away from the tread so that the tire makes better contact with the road. Both of these features greatly improve traction during wet, snowy, or icy conditions.


Karrier S-Trail radials are constructed with double steel belts and full nylon plies for increased durability and endurance. The premium rubber compound materials of this tire help disperse heat.


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.

In our fast paced world where customer service seems to be a thing of the past, I am always amazed when shopping on etrailer. Prompt service, fast shipping and people who actually follow-up to ensure that you are satisfied!

This should be your one stop location for trailer parts.

Great wheel and tire set. I put a lot of miles on these last season and they are holding up very well.



by:

Had a rough time finding tires this small with a load range E. I found Etrailer.com and found the right size. I purchased 2 and they were very quality and shipped in a box u like previous times I've ordered tires they ship just the tire without box. I ended up purchasing a 3rd tire as a spare and will only deal with etrailer.com from now on



by:

Was sent 22 month old trailer tires and was told by etrailer that they couldn’t help me but I could pay shipping to return them.
Alex in customer service told me that it could take 2 years from the time etrailer ordered the tires to receive.



by:

The tires look fine. Only time will tell how good they are. As for the service from Robert at etrailer...wow, excellently took care of my mistake and delivered the goods as needed. Thanks Robert B.



by:

Wear like iron! Towed to Arizona in 115 degree heat at high speeds. I expected them to be pretty worn by the time I got back, since the OEM tires were almost toast just going to the Keys and back. The Kenda tires still looked almost new. Now after about 10k more miles. They still look great.



by:

I needed a quality set of tires for my 1959 Lil Loafer camper trailer, the only tires I could find at any tire shop local to me were bias ply and nothing over a load range D. So needless to say those would wear out real fast and not track very will. These Kenda radials will fill the need perfectly. A load range E 10 ply rating will give me the confidence I need when hitting the road. I had them mounted at a local tire shop and took it out for a test run and they sure help the little trailer track nice. Great tire for a little vintage trailer.

Delivery was fast as well, less than a week. The price is fair with the exception of the Canadian exchange on the US dollar. And the website works smooth for orders, I'll be back for other stuff for sure.

The tires are performing very well. We have a longer trip planned this summer so that will give them a good run, but I’m sure they will be great.



by:

The tires arrived ONE DAY after ordering them. They look good and I am hoping they will perform better than the 'cheap ass trailer tires' I have been using for years. And they have good service and were helpful when ordering.



by:

Got the new tires and had them mounted up. Im glad etrailer had a better small tire for my 5x8 trailer. Ive Had other tire shops tell me 4 or 6ply was the only ply available for the small trailer i had and the farm stores only offered the 4 or 6 ply tire.
Etrailer had 10 ply,radial tires for my need that is rated up to 65 mph on the highway and im very happy. Living on a gravel road, and using the small trailer on the farm i would have flat tires all the time with the old weaker 6 ply tires it came with and they wouldnt last very Long if used them on the pavement.

Still going strong. No flats and tread wear is still doing great also. Id say theres only about 1000 miles on them as i dont use the trailer every day but i did use it on my farm where the other tires wouldnt last long before getting a flat from a cut off tree stump or thorns. I will buy again when needed and have told plenty other people about the tires and where to get them.



by:

I had a small 4 x 8 trailer that I beefed up the suspension and framework so that I could haul dirt on it I've been hauling dirt on it for a year now with those tires approximately 2500 to 3,000 pounds



by:

Received tires very quickly after order was placed. E-trailer has never disapointed me yet. Their prices may be slightly higher than other vendors but they more than make up for this with their service.

A+ You cannot go wrong with these tires.



by:

I bought this tire because of its Load Range E rating. It has performed well and I would recommend for any trailer that has tire size physical space constraints, yet needs for a greater load rating.



by:

I am 100 percent happy with the tires and rims, they are exactly what I was looking for. In the last year I have purchased 4 new 6 ply bias tires due to the new tires I had purchased the year before blowing out with a load. I purchased the 10 ply radial tires with the new rims for a new look and better reliability. The trailer pulls great and the tires and wheels handle excellent. These are great products that I couldn't find anywhere else. Thanks etrailer.



by:

After two seasons on my tandem axle boat trailer (5100 lb combination) I’ve been very happy with the tires. I have about 5k miles on them and they are holding up nicely. Highly recommend, far better performance than what I got out of the factory supplied tires (tread separated and broken cords after 2 years on factory tires)



by:

The tires were delivered extremely fast and immediately the quality was noticeable. I recommend this brand and this website 100 percent and after running thru 2 brands in one month these tires saved my business. I will not shop anywhere else for my tires



by:

This is the second pair of these ST 145/12 radial I have purchased for my vintage 1959 Lil Loafer trailer. After taking the first pair on a couple of short trips I realized I did not have a radial spare, only my old bias ply tires. Since I don't want to mix radial and bias I figured I should buy another pair for spares, (in spite of the exchange rate on the Canadian dollar and the cost of shipping to Canada). Still loving these tires in comparison to the bias ply, we are planning a longer trip still this year so that will be a good test.

Oh, I even reused the packaging to protect my bench top while repacking the bearings.



by:

They have lasted alot more compare to other tires I have used.



by:

Great tire !Replaced the same one I had on my trailer . This tire offers a smooth ride . This is the only tires I would buy and has the best ply and speed rating . Definitely recommend .



by:

I just received the tires today and haven't had them mounted yet so all I can is they look great. Summer before last, we took our pop up camper out West through 18 states in about 60 days. All of our camping up that point had been around Florida where we live, so no long road trips. On our out West trip we had 4 blowouts on our little pop up camper and since we were on the road, we would pick up tire/wheel assemblies from Wal-Mart or Harbor Freight. Did not really know what else to do. Experience has taught us better and that's why I ordered these load range E, 65 mph, 10 ply rating tires. The proof is in the pudding as they say, so in the fall, we will find out how good these tires are and I will write a full review then.

Joseph

Very happy with these tires. Took another long trip last year, Florida to Maine, back home, then to Alabama, Ga and home. Towed 65 mph. No tire problems at all. What a relief!



by:

After one year, they're still round and have plenty of tread. No leaks. Decent tires.



by:

I love doing business with e trailer . Customer service is exceptional. Eric is a top notch 5 star customer service representative!



by:

Very good service



by:

Great wearing and dependable tire. Always had issues with nearly new trailer tires blowing out until I switched to these on all four of my trailers, and in thousands of miles have had zero failures.



by:

The tires are gray for my trike. Will not buy from anyone else. Tried other tires but the didn’t last long as the ones I got from Etrailer.

The tires are in good shape

David V.

2/15/2023

The tires are great for my motorcycle trike. They last longer than regular 6 ply tires that is why I use the radials.



by:

Got the tire today. Got it mounted. Ready for my trip up north.
It's good!



by:

This tire worked great and has done a 600 mile road trip.

  • Comparing 5.30-12 and 205/65-10 Trailer Tires
    There are differences between the 5.30-12 tires and 205/65-10 tires. The 205s only fit a 6 inch wide wheel so you would have to replace the wheels as well if you make the switch. A 205 will be 20.5 inches tall whereas a 5.30 will be 21.9 inches tall. The 205s will also be 8.3 inches wide. A 5.30 will be 5.6 inches wide. This is a big difference and you would have to have at least 1-3/8 inches of clearance between the existing tires and the nearest part of the trailer for the larger size...

  • Recommended ST145/R12 Tire with Steel Wheels or Aluminum Wheel with Higher Load Rating
    That particular tire size, the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E Item # AM10140, is only sold separately and unmounted. This gives you a wide range of wheel choices. Since you said, not aluminum, take a look at the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel - 12" x 4" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - White Powder Coat # AM20151 this is a just one choice of many. All the 12 inch steel wheels like # AM20132 are limited to 1250 lbs capacity so you won't get the full load capacity...

  • Spare Tire For Triton Elite Aluminum Jet Ski Trailer
    I recommend the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10140 and the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel - 12" x 4" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Silver # LH45FR for Triton Jet Ski trailer. This aluminum wheel will stand up well against corrosion. The tire is the same ST145/R12 Load Range E tire that is on your Trailer. The CE Smith Offset Spare Trailer Tire Carrier # CE27310G will allow you to mount the spare onto a trailer frame up to 3" wide and 5" tall.

  • Tougher Tires to Use in Place of 5.30-12 Tires on a 2007 Fleetwood Yuma Pop-up Camper
    Trailer tire # AM10068 which is a 5.30-12 load range D will have a higher capacity, 1,250 pounds at 105 psi, than a C load range. And it will have a higher ply rating, 8, which translates into a tougher tire. Please note that the higher capacity tires will not increase the capacity of the trailer. You might actually want to go to an ST145/12 tire, # AM10140. This is a load range E tire that will fit the same wheel size as a 5.30-12. It has a 10 ply rating and is rated for 1,520 pounds...

  • Can 4.80-12 Tire be Replaced with ST145/R12 Tire Using the Same Wheel
    Yes, the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10140 referenced in your question will fit the same 12 inch wheel with a 4 inch width that your existing 4.80-12 size tires are mounted to. Just note that the ST145/R12 tire will be about 0.8 inches larger in diameter, so you will want to make sure you have the necessary clearance on your trailer for the slightly larger tire size. This Kenda radial ply tire is going to provide an excellent upgrade over your existing set....

    It sounds like you're going to need a hitch, wiring, ball mount and hitch ball, 7 way plug and brake controller, and we do have all of those parts you're looking for. To start, for a hitch I recommend using the Curt # C13146 you were looking at since Curt hitches have a durable powder coating that will help ensure that the hitch holds up over time. For wiring, I recommend using the Tekonsha # 118286 since it's the easiest to install wiring harness. This is a plug and play installation,...

  • How to Find the Date Code on Trailer Tires
    The date code on a tire is 4 numbers and some trailer tires may not even have it on them or it could be just on one side. The first 2 numbers in a date code are the week and the second 2 are the year. In the example picture I included the date code is 2511 meaning that tire was produced in the 25th week of 2011 (it's an old picture). The 4N4F indicates that the tire was made in China but it isn't a date code. The date code is the last 4 numbers in the DOT code on the tire.

  • WillI I Notice a Difference if I Replace 145/80-12 Sized Tires with 205/65-10 Sized Tires
    You likely aren't going to notice any difference at all. A 145/R12 tire, like part # AM10140, is around 21.3 inches in diameter and a 20.5x8-10, or a 205/65-10 to use the current sizing, around 20.5 inches. So your current tires are less than an inch taller which isn't going to make enough of an impact on your wind resistance. With that being said, if you do replace your current tires with the smaller size, like our part # AM3H490, you will have a wider tire by about 2.5 inches or so....

  • Bias vs Radial Tires for 2002 Viking 2470ST Pop-Up Camper
    Since radial tires flex more than bias tires, they generally have better ground contact, traction, stability, and tread wear. They also run cooler than bias tires do, especially when under a load, so radials tend to last longer. While bias ply tires can be useful for off-road applications like farm use, radials are generally preferable on the highway and for long trips. Given your usage, I'd suggest upgrading to a radial tire. I've attached a helpful article on trailer tires for your convenience....

  • Recommended Replacement Trailer Tires for 155R12 Tires
    We do have tires that will work for you, although tires that are size 155R12 are likely automotive or light truck tires, so there isn't a direct replacement of that size for trailer tires. A tire that is very close in size is 145/R12, and I recommend the Kenda tires because of their automotive tread and durability, as evidenced by their 5-year warranty, which is a very long warranty for a tire. The tires that will work for you are: - Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire...

  • Can 12 Inch Wheels And Tires Be Replaced With 15 Inch Wheels And Tires On A Utility Trailer
    When switching from 12 inch wheels to 15 inch wheels you will want to make sure that you have the clearance needed for new tires and wheels. Going from 12 inch wheels to 15 inch wheels will raise the trailer substantially. The 12 inch tires we sell range from about 20 to 22 inches in diameter. The Kenda Karrier # AM10140 has an outer diameter of 21.3 inches. If you put 15 inch tires on your trailer the diameter can range from 27 to 28-1/2 inches. The Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer...

  • Largest Trailer Tire Size for a 12" Wheel on Utility Trailer
    The largest size tire that you can fit on your current wheels is the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10140. This has an overall diameter of 21.3" and a section width of 5.7" meaning that it is about 0.5" larger in diameter and 0.8" wider. I can definitely help you to find bigger tires than that if that's what you're wanting but before we can determine the biggest tire you can install I'll need to know how much fender clearance you have as well as how much clearance...

    A 155 indicates 155 millimeters or 6.107 inches wide. A 155/80-12 is not a trailer tire size or at least not common. The closest match is a 145/80-12 such as # AM10130 for a load range D rated for 1,220 pounds at 65 psi. Or # AM10140 rated for 1,520 pounds at 80 psi. These tires will fit on rims that are 4 inches wide measured on the inside where the tire sets. For a steel spoke 12x4 with 4 on 4 bolt pattern use # AM20122.

    The new 175/80-13 tire will be 3-1/2" larger in diameter than the old 205/65-10 tire you have now. This means you will lose around 1-3/4" of clearance. I recommend that you have at least 3" so you will be close but ultimately the choice is up to you. The next size down would be a 145/80-12 (Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # AM10140 with Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel part # AM20134) and you will only loose around 1/2" with this size.

Since all of the 12" wheels that have a 4 on 4" bolt pattern have lower weight capacities (1,250 lbs at the most) I recommend checking out the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire Load Range D (1,220 lbs at 65 psi) w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel # AM35351DX....
