• How to Prevent Tire Cupping on 20 Foot Gooseneck Equipment Trailer
  Typically, cupping on a tire is caused by the tire bouncing on the road, which can be caused by several things. Check the air pressure in your trailer tires. A trailer tire should be kept inflated to the maximum air pressure listed on the tire sidewall. Also make sure the weight rating of your tires is not being exceeded Having one or more wheel/tires out of balance could also be causing the problem, have a tire shop check your wheels for balance. Typically, trailer tires are not as sensitive...

• Excessive Outer and Center Tread Wear Only on One Side of New Boat Trailer
  The outside tread wear usually occurs when there isn't enough load on the trailer to flatten out the axle enough. If that were the case you should see it on both sides. Just on one side could indicate that something in the suspension is loose or damaged on that one side or the spindle or other part of the running gear is damaged or was installed improperly. If the camber is off enough it could also account for the wear reaching the center of the tread. There is also the possibility that...

• Trailer Tires Wearing On the Inside of the Tread
  Tire wear just on the inside tread of the tires can indicate that the trailer is overloaded. Or it could mean that the axle has been flipped over (so the bow in the axle that is supposed to be pointed up would be pointed down) and this can cause the same issue. It also decreases the axle capacity. Most trailers do not have adjustments for the camber except to adjust the position of the whole axle. To determine if the axle is not aligned properly measure from a single point on the trailer...

• What is the Smallest Diameter Tire That Can Fit on a 15 Inch Wheel
  The lowest profile 15 inch diameter tire we offer is the Loadstar ST205/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire - Load Range C # AM1ST92, which is 27.4" overall. This is a 205/75-15 tire with a capacity of 1,820-lbs. The issue you may run into with anything smaller than that is the load carrying ability is greatly reduced with less sidewall, so capacity should be paid attention to closely when trying to go smaller.

• Is There a 13 Inch Wheel and Tire That Is Comparable in Size and Capacity to an ST205/75r15
  I may have a solution for you, but there is not a 13 radial tire that I would consider a comparable replacement for a tire like the Loadstar ST205/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire - Load Range C # AM1ST92, which has a 27.4" diameter and 1820-lbs capacity. Going down in size like this will also likely reduce your carrying capacity so you will want to take the GVWR of the trailer into consideration when deciding if you can make the smaller tire work. The largest tire that we have available for a...

• Is There a Normal PSI Rating for a ST205/75D15 Size Tire
  The psi rating for tires actually depends more on their load range than if they are bias or radial. For example, the Loadstar # AM1ST92 has a load range of C which is 1,820 lbs at 50 psi. Both of these tires are ST205/75D15 size tires. You can find the operating psi rating for your tire on the sidewall. This is the pressure that it was tested and approved for when it comes to the weight capacity.

• Trailer Tires Excessively Wearing on Outside of Tread
  Are you speaking of the trailer tires or the tires on your tow vehicle? Typically, trailer tires should be kept inflated to the maximum pressure listed on the tire's sidewall. An under inflated tire will typically have wear at the inner and outer edges, but it's recommended to fully inflate the tires to remove one possible cause. Other factors that could cause the wear you describe are excessive sway, a damaged axle or suspension components or tire scrub. I'd suspect suspension damage...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Tire Wear on Insides and Outsides When Not Overloaded and Proper Inflation
  Typically when the outsides of a tire are wearing and it's not being overloaded the trailer or vehicle needs to have an alignment done. Best option is to take the trailer to an alignment shop and have them address.

• What is the Speed Rating for Kenda/Loadstar ST205/75D15 Load Range C Bias Trailer Tire
  The Kenda tire # AM1ST92 is now rated for 81 miles per hour regardless of the load on them. Running it over that speed for extended periods of time can cause excessive heat build up and lead to tire failure. Another option in the same size, 205/75-15, that has the same 81 miles per hour speed rating is # TTWTRTM2057515C. It is a radial tire so it will run cooler than a bias ply tire. Provided the rest of the trailer is in good shape and won't cause uneven tire wear you can run these...

• How to Determine Bolt Pattern of Trailer Where There is No Wheel
  I would not recommend using passenger vehicle tires on your trailer. You will only want to use trailer tires that have the letters ST in the size which stand for special trailer. Trailer tires have a thicker side wall and are designed for carrying trailer loads. You should always keep trailer tires inflated to the maximum PSI rating. As for determining the bolt pattern of your trailer without wheels, I have linked a FAQ article on determining the bolt pattern of trailer wheels. You will...

• 15 Inch Wheel/Tire Combo with 4 Lugs for Older Camper
  We offer a wheel and tire that are sold separately that might very well work for your application. The 215/75-15 isn't a typical trailer tire size, but a 205/75-15 like # AM1ST92 is definitely in the ballpark, being only about 1/4 inch smaller in diameter than your existing tire.

• Can an ST225/75D15 Tire be Used as a Temporary Spare for an ST205/75D15 Trailer Tire
  You can use an ST225/75D15 as a temporary spare (provided the wheel is 6 or 6-1/2 inches wide) but you definitely do not want to have it on for long. I would say that it is fine to use to get you to a place that can repair or replace the 205/75-15. For replacement 205/75-15s we have a load range C, # AM1ST92 that would work great for you. The 225 will be 13/16 inches wider and about 1 inch taller so it will affect how the trailer tracks and put added stress on the 205 side. I have included...

• Boat Trailer Bounces A Lot when No Boat is on the Trailer
  Yes, this happens with trailers when they are unloaded. The weight of the load, in this case the boat, prevents that from happening. The only way to stop it from happening is to have the trailer weighed down or reduce the air pressure in the tires a little. I do not recommend reducing the air pressure though because you would have to fill them back up again with the boat on the trailer. Putting weight on the trailer is also probably not the easiest thing to accomplish when you are out...

  The tires you have Wynstar R21 tire size is 205 65R 15 24HR M/S, are vehicle tires and not designed for trailer use.

• What Causes One Trailer Tire To Wear Faster Than the Others On a Tandem Axle Trailer
  There are a number of issues that can cause irregular tire wear but generally this would be the tire wearing more on one side, not necessarily that the entire tire has worn faster than the others. If the latter is true then this could be an issue with the amount of air you have in each tire or the way the trailer is loaded perhaps. If you were using a different type of tire such as one with a different ply or load range then that could cause this issue as well. That said, it's rather...

• Troubleshooting Uneven Tire Wear on Single Tire on Tandem Axle Pontoon Boat
  There are a number of possible causes for a single tire being worn on your tandem axle pontoon trailer. Since it has been moved very little, it could be that you had some flat spotting from long term storage that caused this. That would be difficult to prove at this point though since the tire is already worn from towing. Another possible cause could be worn out suspension components or a misaligned axle. Make sure nothing is loose, bent, or damaged. The tire pressure could also be the...

• Determining If ST205/75-15 Size Tire Will Support Weight of 5,300 Pound Trailer
  We do not currently carry Carlisle tires so I am not sure what the load capacity is of the 205/75-15 tire you are looking at. With that being said, load capacities will vary within tires of the same size based on their specific load rating. Not all 205/75-15 size trailer tires have the same load capacity. This goes for their speed rating as well. For example, we have an ST205/75D15 size tire with the Loadstar # AM1ST92 that has a Load Range C. This is a maximum load of 1,820 pounds at...

• Travel Trailer Tires for 25 Foot Tandem Axle Trailer with ST205/75-15 Tires
  It is best to stick with the tire size recommended by the trailer manufacturer. This information should be on a sticker or plate on the trailer tongue or frame somewhere. Since the trailer weighs or is rated at 6,000 pounds, I recommend going with load range C ST205/75-15 tires if that is what the trailer manufacturer requires. Use # AM10244 for a radial or # AM1ST92 for a bias ply tire. Each is rated for 1,820 pounds at 50 psi. I have linked our help article on trailer tires for you.

• Uneven Trailer Tire Wear on a Single Axle Trailer
  I agree with the dealer. And 1/4 inch being within tolerance sounds excessive to me. I would keep it no more than an 1/8 or less off. To determine which way the axle(s) need to go mark a point on the top of the coupler, right in the center where the ball goes in. Then measure from that point to the center of the axle on each side. The measurements need to be as close to the same as you can get them. Also check the suspension components for excessive wear. Egg-shaped holes instead of...
