Specs:
The standard tread on these tires has solid, continuous ribs with very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. These tires are designed for use on trailers, so they don't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.
Rambler radials have double polyester cords and double steel belts. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation.
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.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this Taskmaster Rambler ST 205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire in a load range D. Now this is a radial ply tire, so it's great for highway use. They do use the double steel belts and the double polyester cords, which combine for a nice long life. And they do use a nylon tread firming belt overlay around the tire to help prevent tread separation. Now this tire is designed to fit 15 inch diameter wheels.
The tire size, which would be stamped on the sidewall, ST for special trailer 205 75R 15. The R stands for a radial tire. Low range on this is a low range D, which means it's an eight ply rated tire. So it has a maximum load capacity of 2,150 pounds at 65 PSI. The other thing I wanna mention is most all the new trailer tires are coming through with speed ratings and they stamp that on the sidewall also and they indicate it by a letter speed rating.
So on this one where you find it is right after the size, you'll see two numbers for the load index and then the letter M, speed rating M will mean it has an 81 mile per hour speed rating. Now the tread design on this, they use a standard tread, has a solid cut continuous ribs with very few sipes or cuts that are put into the rubber. Sipes are usually what help with bad weather by breaking up any water that's underneath the tire. These tires, since they're designed for trailers, they don't really require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that has braking or steering. This tire is an ST tire for special trailer, has sturdy sidewalls so they can handle the heavy loads and it is created specifically for trailers.
It's not intended for use on any other vehicles. This tire will meet the DOT Department of Transportation specifications and it does exceed the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. But that should do it for the review on the Taskmaster Rambler ST 205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire in a load range D.
