1-Year Worry-Free Guarantee
This tire has a 1-year worry-free guarantee. If within the first 12 months the tire is damaged in any way, it will be replaced at no charge.
Bias Tires vs. Radial Tires
Bias ply tires are designed for off-road or agricultural applications. They are built with thick, durable nylon cords that are positioned at a 30- to 45-degree angle to the direction of travel. The layers alternate in a crisscross pattern, making the sidewalls stiffer so that the entire tire is able to flex easily. As a result, the tire provides a smooth ride and improved handling when trailering on uneven surfaces.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
Measuring the distance from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

I love the new tires...I put them on a galvanized boat trailer I bought in the mid 1990's, I have gone thru 3 sets of rims over the time as the white painted rims would pit...then rust. The other issue was they were only 4.8" x 8" tires but trailer had fenders to accommodate 12" tires. Don't know why I waited so long but purchased larger 4.8" x 12" tires with galvanized rims, what a difference. etrailer helped me select the needed tires and price was great compared to what local stores had, and no one locale had galvanized rims.
etrailers' prices are fantastic and had my 3 tires and rims in a few days, great turnaround time. Will see how the tires last as we are still in the depth of winter here in the northeast.

I use my trailer 2 to 4 times a month all year round and have put about 1200 miles on these tires. I am happy with these wheels and would recommend them.
by: Tim04/24/2024
Excellent price and appears to be high quality. Needed a spare for my Kayak trailer and this fit the bill.
by: Tom C.03/18/2019
I needed tires for my 5 x 8 trailer because the old tires were cracking on the sides. I priced out several companies and one of the larger discount stores wanted nearly double. I got a better deal buying 2 tires with wheels than if I had gone to a tire shop for just tire replacement. I’m very happy with the price, service and shipping time using etrailer. Thanks much!!

These tires are still working great. I use this trailer frequently and am happy with my tires from etrailer. Will definitely order from them again for tires and other parts. Thx

Replaced the 23 year old Kendra Load Star tires on my utility trailer. Went with the galvanized wheels as I think they'll resist rust better the the original white wheels. From a few feet away they
galvanized wheel almost looks like chrome!
by: Jeffery04/25/2022
Ordered 3 wheel and tire assemblies to replace my old ones on my trailer, one for as spare. After more than 10 days and back ordered after i ordered them. I get them and they have the wrong valve stems installed. These are load C trailer tires 90 psi. The rubber valve stem that came in them are 60 psi. So now these wheel and tire assemblies cant be used and are now not DOT compliant. My old trailer tires im replacing have metal valve stem which are DOT compliant for 90 psi. After 2 phone calls and a hour waiting to talk to someone. They agreed about the valve stem concern. But no call back with a resolution to the problem as promised. I called back a third time today to the persons extension and it went to voice mail! E-trailer this is a fail!

Matches my new Triton PWC trailer OEM tire. Great price and shipped next day. Robust box package ensured it wasn’t damaged. Customer service was outstanding at communicating the progress of my order and shipping. I’m always impressed with etrailer!

Good purchase. I up graded to a load C. My trailer doesn’t bounce as much.
by: Ronald06/12/2018
I am more than happy with this purchase.
The price was unbeatable.
I feel much safer and secure towing my boat on the freeway at high speeds for long distances with these tires and wheels.
Shipping was extremely fast,and communication was excellent.
I highly recommend these as an upgrade to any smaller trailer.

Wheel and tire fit perfectly. Runs great down the road. One of my old tires was bouncing a lot (I could see it in my mirror) and the treads eventually wore out. No local tire store would balance a 12" trailer tire/wheel.
The guides and advice on this site take the stress out of ordering online.
Long term review will have to take place later :-)

Just great. Over a year of hauling household furniture and building materials through 500 mile round trips twice a month during all weather conditions...snow, sleet, rain, hot days and nights, put these tires to the test. Never leaked air, no rust in the galvanization, tread wear is even.

Etrailer has the best prices and fastest shipping I have ever found. Excellent company.

Tires are exactly as specified.Rims are a little "rough".The rims have discoloration on them and what looks like spots where the welding was done
poorly.

Blew out a tire a Saturday. Ordered two new ones on etrailer.com Sunday. They arrived with free shipping Thursday. Back on the road, the following Saturday. Fast, easy, affordable, and product as described. What more can you ask for! Thanks

They are for 2 utility trailers I own. Right now with the weather so bad they are leaning up against the wall at the carport door.Thanks so much for the fast delivery.

I got this as a spare for my jet ski trailer (used for a kayak). Its a good value and fit perfectly. Shipping was very fast from eTrailer as it usually is.
by: Richard 02/03/2023
Items received as promised. Appear to be what I was looking for. Won't be able to try them until this spring so can't comment on how well they perform.

Have used the tires all year and they have worked flawlessly. Would buy them again.
by: Brandon R10/27/2022
Great customer service. It’s refreshing to follow the product I buy through the entire picking, packaging and shipping process. It arrived fast and in excellent condition and a follow up email ensuring I was taken care of just to top it all off. As long as etrailer does business this way, I’ll be a customer. Awesome job!

Made the order for boat trailer wheels/tires and a hour later got message that order had shipped. Received order in two days. Great job!
by: Tim H.07/29/2020
I bought these wheels to replace the original wheels on my Honda jet ski trailer. They were delivered on time, ready to install. I had both of them on the trailer in about 30 minutes. I bought them because of the stainless steel rims as my old wheels were rusting. I had one question prior to buying, but eTrailer customer service answered it quickly. This is the 3rd time I’ve bought a product from eTrailer and all of them have been exactly what they were advertised to be. Good company to buy from. Fair pricing. Will definitely buy from eTrailer again.
by: Manuel03/22/2023
Exactly what the trailer originally came with. They have been great and I use near salt water.
etrailer shipped this really quick A+
by: Joseph05/05/2024
Tires appear OK; however, galvanization on all three wheels poorly applied, flawed and unsightly.

- Replacement Trailer Spare for Tire Size 4.80-12The tire diameters are very different between the two sizes. The bigger size you have now of 4.80-12 is overall 20.5 inches tall and the older size 4.80-8 is 16.1 inches. Since that difference is split between either side of the spindle you'd have one side of the trailer sitting 2.2 inches taller than the other. In a very short-term emergency situation you could probably limp home with that but I would highly recommend matching the larger tire size for a spare with something like the part...
view full answer... - Is It Okay If Trailer Weighs Exactly 2,100 lbs When Loaded and it has Tire Capacity of 2,100If you are absolutely certain that your trailer when loaded would not exceed 2,100 lbs then you wouldn't need to worry as you should be fine. I would strongly recommend you keep your tires inflated to their maximum psi though. If a trailer tire is inflated to a lower air pressure than the maximum, the amount of weight that the tire can carry will be reduced. If a heavier load is put on the trailer tire than what is recommended for that air pressure, the sidewall of the tire could heat...
view full answer... - Comparing Two Tires of the Same Size For Spare Tire UseWhen comparing two tires, what really matters is the size, bolt pattern of the wheel, speed rating and load range are the same. The DOT code is a date of manufacturer code so that isn't going to matter as much. If both the stock and spare tire are 4.80-12 Load Range C tires then they are the same size so there will not be a difference there. You want to make sure both wheels have the same bolt pattern to fit the trailer. The only Loadstar 4.80-12 Bias Trailer Tire we carry is part # AM30670...
view full answer... - Thinner Replacement Trailer Tires to Replace 20.5 x 8 - 10 Sized TiresYour 20.5 x 8-10 sized tires are the same as a 205/65-10 sized tire using new measuring. The rims are 6 inches wide. A replacement size that's the same 20.5 inch diameter are 4.80-12 sized tires but the weight capacity is much lower. For example the Kenda # AM30670 is rated for 990 pounds at 90 psi. Your current tires are likely rated higher. The rim is 4 inches wide. If you have the clearance to go with a larger diameter tire you may be able to use size 145/80-12 which also use a...
view full answer... - Comparison of Two Kenda Tire and Wheel Combos Part # AM30670 and # AM30790Both tires # AM30670 and # AM30790 are Kenda tires but there are a number of differences. For starters they're different sized tires. The # AM30670 is a 4.80-12 sized tire and # AM30790 is a larger 5.30-12 sized tire. The latter being about 3/4 of an inch wider and over an inch larger in diameter. Also, they both have a C Load Range but the larger # AM30790 has a higher weight capacity at 1,045 pounds when inflated to 80 psi. The # AM30670 is rated up to 990 pounds at 90 psi. With...
view full answer... - Replacement Wheel and Tire Recommendation for Load Rite Boat Trailer 14F1000WWe have wheels and tires that would work well for you. You would need to know what bolt pattern your wheels have though. If you have a 5 lug bolt pattern the part # AM30670 would work well. This has an 65 mph speed rating and inflates to 90 psi when cold. For a 4 lug bolt pattern you would want the # AM30630 which also has the 65 mph speed rating.
view full answer... - Best 12 Inch Galvanized Tires and Rims for Small Boat TrailerA radial tire flexes more than a bias tire, giving it better ground contact, traction, stability, and tread wear. Radial tires generally run cooler than bias tires, which usually leads to a longer life for radials. I would recommend going with a radial tire if possible, but provided you heed limits such as load range and psi, a bias tire will also work. We currently offer three different tire sizes that have 12 inch diameters and galvanized 5-lug rims. You can check your current tires to...
view full answer... - What Tire Pressure Should Trailer with 12 inch Wheels be Ran AtWith trailer tires like # AM30670 you have to run the max tire pressure rating that's on the sidewall of the trailer. This ensures you get the full weight capacity of the tire and also that you prevent any heat build up which also leads to premature tire failure. Trailer suspension by nature is a bit bouncier than vehicle suspension since there isn't a shock there to dampen the movement of it.
view full answer... - Do Wheel and Tire Combos Come with Lug NutsLug nuts are not included with the trailer wheel and tire combos we offer like the # AM30670 that you referenced. You'd need lug nuts too like with # 319EZ. We have Taskmaster wheel and tires like the part # TA98RR which has the higher speed rating you are looking for but it's not on the same wheel as what you referenced.

- Upgrading 4.80-12 Wheels and Tires on Triton PWC Trailer For Better Highway TripsA radial tire like the Taskmaster 4.80R12 # TT48012C is a lot better for longer trips. The radial construction is ideal for highway use as it will run cooler than a Bias # AM30670 tire like you have. It also has a much higher speed rating of 81mph while your tire is most likely limited to 55mph. Personally I prefer using an aluminum Wheel # LH45FR on a boat trailer as it will better resist corrosion. It will also help to keep the tire cooler since aluminum is better at dissipating heat....

Since you mentioned you have a 4.80-12 tire and wheel - like the Loadstar # # AM30670, for example - I can tell you that tire and wheel measures 20.7" in diameter and 4.9" wide while the trailer tire and wheel you asked about, the # AM3S334, measures 24.4" in...
view full answer... - Options For Upgrading Tires And Wheels On A Karavan 5 x 8 Utility TrailerIt may be possible to upgrade the 4.80-12 tires on your Karavan trailer. The main factor we need to consider is the clearance between the tire and the fender, as well as the clearance between the inside of the tire and the trailer frame. Our rule of thumb is that we want at least 3" between the tire and the fender, and at least 1" between the tire and the trailer frame. Based on the pictures I can see online, it looks like clearance will be an issue with your trailer, but you can always...

For a Baby Moon Hubcap # AM90086 you have to have a Conventional style wheel like is found on the Wheel and Tire # AM31241. We do not have any Conventional wheels for the 4.8-12 # AM30670 wheel and tire package you found. The # AM31241 is our smallest size conventional wheel we carry at 175/80D13.

- What is the Max Tire Pressure for the Kenda Loadstar TireNo matter what trailer tire you are using, including the Kenda Loadstar # AM30670, you need to keep the cold psi rating to the what the manufacturer recommends. When you are over or under the recommended pressure then you can cause excessive heat build-up which results in a blowout. Even if it feels like the 990 lbs at 90 psi weight capacity seems like overkill for your trailer this is the best way to maintain your trailer tires. You should be able to find the 90 psi rating somewhere on...

The galvanized wheel will match what comes on the trailer. The spare tire carrier will depend on how you would prefer to mount the spare. A CE Smith Spare Tire Carrier # CE22007Z-11050-2 will allow you to mount the tire horizontally on top of the trailer. This would work best near the a-frame of the trailer to support the tire. The...
view full answer... - Can Trailer Tire Size of 20.5x8-10 be Replaced with 4.80-12The two sizes you mentioned have the exact same diameter of 20.5 inches. The biggest difference is that the 12 inch size you are considering of 4.80-12 is much narrower at 4.9 inches compared to 8.4. Clearance wise you'd not have any problems at all. If you have a 5 lug bolt pattern you'd need the part # AM30670 or if you have a 4 lug pattern you'd need the # AM30630.

A 4.80-12 tire and a 145/80-12 tire are both designed for a 12x4 rim, so you will indeed be able to reuse your current rims. The 145/80-12 tires will be about 3/4 of an inch wider and 1/2 an inch taller. I wouldn't recommend reusing one of the old tires as a spare, unless it's a last-ditch...
