Taskmaster Radials
Taskmaster radials have double polyester cords and double steel belts for increased durability and endurance. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation. Taskmaster radials are bake tested - a process usually reserved for automotive tires - to ensure that the rubber holds up over time.
The standard tread on this tire has solid, continuous ribs, and there are very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. This tire is designed for use on trailers, so it doesn't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.
Radial Tires vs. Bias Tires
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.

Thanks for the nice message! Have not had the trailer out much since the new tires, but I felt like there was a smoother ride and less jumping from the trailer with them on. I'll try to send an update from my next adventure!

Had one last only 300 miles. Went through taskmaster warranty and did not get the same tire replacement. Did not have same tire.

No issues yet. Used in lightweight trailer usually pulled behind a motorcycle. Nice to find heavy trailer tires rated for 81mph.

Still working great, no issues.
by: Deane05/30/2022
These tires and wheels made a huge difference in the trailer tracking. Rather than a constant vibration from the older bias ply tires that I couldn’t get balanced properly, I mounted your set and almost forgot I was pulling it. Very smooth and sporty looking. Highly recommend this setup.

GREAT UPGRADE FROM WHAT CAME WITH THE TRAILER,THESE ARE HIGHWAY RATED UNLIKE
WHAT CAME WITH THE DK2 TRAILER AND BLEW OUT..OVERALL GREAT TIRE

E-trailer is the best for selection and quality. I needed new tires for my utility trailer, and they had the best selection and prices, plus their description aids in determining what is best for your use.

After a year, I couldnt be happier. Great price and great product.
by: Richard G.06/02/2018
Purchased the Taskmaster radial to replace the four year old Carlisle bias ply. One of the old tires had a bulge. It seems they were rated to 60 MPH. In fairness I was pulling my boat above 70 most of the time. The Taskmaster is rated to 75 MPH. They are not quite as wide but I ordered the identical size as the old tires. It should be noted the service was amazing. I ordered on a Sunday night and they arrived on Wednesday. Free shipping in deluxe cardboard boxes. If the tire are as good as the service I'll be in great shape.

The tires are excellent. Very smooth compared to the factory installed tires. Most of the time you cannot detect a boat trailer behind the vehicle. Would buy only radials going forward.
by: Phil04/10/2022
I put 2600 miles at 70+ mph with no issues. Performing as advertised.

The tires are holding up well. No issues. Over 8000 miles on the interstate.
by: Wes 09/05/2020
Received the tires I ordered in a matter of days. Well packaged in a sturdy box. Couldn’t be more pleased with the help from the techs at etrailer and the ease of the purchasing and delivery. Easier than driving all over town looking for the right tire and purchasing locally.

I’ve put over 6,000 miles on the trailer tires I mounted on my Escapade motorcycle trailer in the past year. Couldn’t be more pleased with the tires, even wear across the tires, maintains pressure. I pull the trailer at highway speeds, often at 75 to 80 mph.
by: Richard06/13/2022
I bought the highest cost highest speed rated tires for my light 4x8 utility trailer. Folks drive fast in Michigan, our 4 seasons are short, so we need to move quickly. These tires have had the grip I needed and I would buy them again.
by: James C03/16/2020
These have been the best tires I have purchased for my small light weight pop up camper. Tire Discounters sold me pair before these that were not radial that blew in their only second year use. I haven’t had an issue and see little wear.
by: Charlie01/09/2018
I replaced my standard boat trailer bias tires after driving from Ontario to Florida with these radial steel belted beauties. They have a highway rating of 81 MPH which blow the bias tires out of the water. I don't have a low speed bounce anymore and less damage to the interior storage areas of the boat. Great change.
by: Steven 07/11/2022
I ordered the tires to upgrade my utility trailer to be able to haul my harley Ultra classic (900 pounds) at hwy speeds if I ever have to. The order was delivered a day before it was supposed to be and it was in a very well protected shipping box. The service was outstanding.
by: Bernard 07/16/2022
A friend turned me onto etrailer and have used them ever since. Great products and great service including fast shipping with tracking number, what more could you ask for !
by: Phil 03/17/2023
1,000+ miles, including long stints at 70 mph, with no issues. Would purchase again.

For our site if is part is made in the US, we have made in USA on the product page. I will have our customer service team reach out to you.
by: David 09/15/2022
There are so many cheap, imported tires. I was looking for something sturdy, radial, and USA made. Worth the extra money.
Also, I was expecting to see these arrive simply strapped together, but they were carefully placed in a box. Nice detail, thank you.
by: Scott 06/24/2022
Great product and exceptional service to go along with the purchase! I purchased this tire because it was a radial and it has the extended speed rating. No problems at all pulling my pop up camper at 70+MPH.
The purchase and customer support and communication with this sale was five-star!!
by: Robert 07/16/2022
This was the only retailer that sold radial tires in the size for my boat trailer. I'm hoping they perform as advertised.
by: Håkan08/29/2022
Great tyres !
My trailer rolls easier on radials. With basic tyre tools, They are easy to DIY install.
by: James03/03/2022
Tires appear in good condition but haven’t had opportunity to install them yet due to problems with grease seal used in hub assembly kits that were purchased from etrailer
by: Kenneth06/07/2022
Got the tires mounted, put them on my vintage 1992 coleman camper. These tires are worth the money.
by: Brian H09/15/2021
These are exactly what I needed! Gwen have info that helped me make the right choice! And I’ve ordered ceiling lights for my popup before from etrailer.com and am very happy with their product and customer service.
by: Dean05/01/2022
Haven't had much chance to use yet, but I like the thought of travelling on radials vs. bias ply tires...especially in these smaller diameters.

- Upgrading Tires on Ultra-Tow 5 x 8 Aluminum Utility Trailer With Higher Speed RatingThe Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C would be a great addition to a Ultra-Tow 5' x 8' Aluminum Utility Trailer. It has an 81 mph speed rating so you will not have any issues at highway speeds. It is also just a really great, quality trailer tire options so I m sure you'll be happy. If you want a wheel/tire combo, the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel part # TA78RR would have the same tire as the above.
view full answer... - Recommended 5.30x12 Tire and Wheel Combo Galvanized or Powder Coated WheelYou're correct that for long distance travel you might find that radial tires are better suited because they won't have as much heat build up, which can ultimately lead to a tire failure. I don't recommend going up to a 145 r12 wheel and tire in this case since you're only going to have about 1/4" of space left on this swap, which really doesn't leave much room for error. However, the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 12" Silver Mod Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range C # TA26RR you...
view full answer... - Can 5.30-12 Trailer Tires Be Used To Replace 4.80-12 Trailer TiresYes, you can replace 4.80-12 trailer tires with 5.30-12 trailer tires because they are just slightly larger in both diameter by about 1" and width by about .5". I recommend the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C because the radial ply will allow the tires to run cooler on the highway therefore last longer. They will both fit the same size wheel as well so no need to change this out.
view full answer... - Replacement Trailer Tire in Size 5.30-12 RecommendationIs it possible the tire size on your trailer is actually 5.30-12 and not 5.80-12? As the 5.30-12 size is a very common trailer tire size and 5.80 is not. In the 5.30-12 size the best option is the radial Taskmaster part # TT53012C as it will track the best compared to the bias ply options, has a higher speed rating, and has a weight capacity of 1,050 lbs at 80 psi. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well. To pick out bearings for a trailer hub you will need to remove...

- Are There Upgraded Tires for the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility TrailerThe Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer part # K2MMT5X7 will not accept a larger wheel/tire combination unfortunately. There is not enough room between the tire and fender for this. That said, if all you're wanting is radial you can use the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C which is the same size on the trailer now but with radial a ply.

I like the Taskmaster 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Silver Mod Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range C # TA26RR. However, I recommend going with a radial ply option as these will run cooler on the highway therefore last longer. This would require you to purchase the tire and wheel separately and then have them mounted at a local shop upon arrival. For the tire, I recommend the Taskmaster...
view full answer... - Recommended Spare Wheel/Tire for 2006 Load Rite Snowmobile Trailer with 5.30-12 TiresThe Taskmaster 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" White Mod Wheel part # TA86RR would be a great spare if you have bias ply tires. If you have radial tires, you would need to purchase the tire and the wheel separately and have them mounted at a local shop. For the tire, Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C Item # TT53012C. Then for the wheel, you could go with the Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 12" x 4" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Silver # TA79RR. In order to store...
view full answer... - Contact Patch of Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer TireThe section width of the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT48012C is 4.84", the actual contract patch with the road will vary based on inflation. That said, pretty much all tires this size will have similar contact patches so if you want more you'll have to go with another size like 5.30-12, the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C for example which has a section width of 5.39".
view full answer... - Taskmaster Radial Tire with M Speed RatingThe tire you were looking at the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire item # TT53012C is the only 12" tire we have with an M speed rating. We do not have any tire wheel combos that will give you a speed rating of M in the 12" size. Our tire wheel combos do not come balanced and most trailer tires do not because they are not required to be. I have linked our selection of 12" 5 on 4 1/2" lug nut pattern wheels. We do sell a balancing kit it is the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads for Tandem...
view full answer... - Recommended Replacement Tire/Wheel for Boat Trailer for Interstate Highway TravelSince you want to make long-distance highway trips with your boat you will be best served by a tire that can safely handle faster highway speeds above 65-mph. The only way to do this is to purchase the tire and wheel separately and then have them mounted at a local shop. For tire I suggest the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C, Item # TT53012C. This tire can handle 1,050-lbs at 80-psi and it is rated for speeds up to 81-mph. This is an excellent choice so long as...
view full answer... - 12 Inch Diameter Trailer Tire with 70 MPH Speed RatingFor starters, the weight capacity of your trailer axle does not directly affect the speed rating of your trailer. The speed rating is more or less limited by the tires. We have several 12" diameter tires for you with the speed rating you desire so upgrading your trailer axle is not really necessary. In order to make sure we get you the correct one I would need to know what size your tires are. This should be listed on a tag somewhere on the trailer or you can just use the size you have...
view full answer... - Recommended 12 Inch Tires Compatible With Highway Speeds for Haul Master TrailerAs long as the manufacturer of your trailer doesn't have any caveats regarding running the trailer at 70-75 mph, the hubs/bearings are properly serviced at regular intervals and the tires you're using are properly speed rated, there's no reason why you can't stay with your current 5.30-12 tire size. If the 5.30-12 is the stock tire size, I'd recommend sticking with the tire size the trailer was designed to work with. You don't mention the load rating of your current tires, but if a load...
view full answer... - Comparing 4.80-12 and 5.30-12 Trailer Tires For a Boat TrailerBoth the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT48012C and Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire # TT53012C will work well for long distance trips with their radial construction. They are both designed to fit a 12" x 4" wheel so you can change to the larger size as long as you have the necessary tire clearance. The 5.30R12 is 21.57" in diameter and 5.39" wide, while the 4.80R12 is 20.63" in diameter and 4.84" wide. Do remember as this is a boat trailer the higher you raise it with...
view full answer... - Tire to Replace 4.80-12 on 5 by 8 TrailerIt would not honestly make it any more stable. You'd loose weight capacity, most likely speed rating, and ground clearance like you mentioned. Best option might be stick with what you have now and just make sure it's properly inflated. Otherwise since it looks like you have a 4.80-12 size to go with the next slightly larger size of 5.30-12 like part # TT53012C which would be slightly larger in width, diameter, and has an 81 mph speed rating.
view full answer... - Can 4.80-12 Tire of Trailer be Replaced with 5.30-12The two tire sizes you referenced, 4.80-12 and 5.30-12, both fit 4-inch wide rims, but they differ in their overall diameter. A 4.80-12 tire/wheel when fully inflated will have a diameter of 20-1/2-inches while the 5.30-12 size will be just under 22-inches in overall diameter. As long as the additional height is not a problem it would be a great choice if you wanted to swap to the bigger size. The part # TT53012C would then be a great choice as a replacement. This has a 1,050-lb max load...
view full answer... - Recommended 5.3-12 Tire To Carry 1750lb Load And Go 60-70 MPH On HighwayAs long as the 45 MPH speed rating on your 5' x 8' utility trailer is due to the tires I recommend replacing your current 5.3-12 tires with the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C # TT53012C which have a load rating of 1050lbs per tire so they will have plenty of load rating for your 1750lb load. The # TT53012C also has a speed rating of 81 MPH so you will be fine towing at 65-70 MPH. I included a video of the # TT53012C for you to take a look at.

view full answer... - Taskmaster 5.30R-12 Spare Tire With a Galvanized Steel Wheel 5 On 4-1/2" Lug PatternYour trailer hubs are most likely lug centric and not hub centric. If you have tapered lug nuts that hold on your wheels then you have a lug centric hub and the pilot hole diameter will be okay being larger. Mixing your load range should not be an issue since you are going larger. The higher load rating will have a stiffer construction that will cause the tire to bounce more than absorb on bumps.

Although we do have load range D tires in the 5.30-12 size they are bias as opposed to radial in style. Bias tires are meant more for off-road purposes like agriculture whereas the radial tires have a sidewall with more flex that can better dissipate the heat build-up than bias can.
