Platinum Plus Warranty with Roadside Assistance
This tire-and-wheel assembly comes with a Platinum Plus warranty that includes complimentary roadside assistance for 2 years. If your trailer has a flat tire, call the help line and a technician will come change out the flat tire with your existing inflated spare tire. The service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition to the roadside assistance, this warranty also includes other benefits and services.
Corrosion-Resistant Finish
The steel wheel goes through a 3-step finishing process that makes it both attractive and corrosion resistant. The wheel is first submerged in a zinc phosphate bath to ensure good paint adhesion. It is then e-coated with an acrylic primer base and the outboard side is finished with baked-on DuPont powder paint. The light e-coat on the inboard side of the wheel reduces friction between the wheel and your hub and eliminates the flaking that can occur with a heavily applied paint finish.
Improved Torque Retention Technology
The automotive-rated center disc is raised and the stud holes are beveled and uncoated for better clamp force retention. This technology helps the wheel stay tight against your hub without the need for constant retightening.
Provider Radials
Provider radials are constructed with 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. Provider radials are bake tested - a process usually reserved for automotive tires - to ensure that the rubber holds up over time.
Match Mounted and Balanced Trailer Tire Assembly
In an ideal world, tire-and-wheel assemblies would be perfectly round and even throughout. Unfortunately tires and wheels have imperfections that often cause vibrations, resulting in a rough ride and wear and tear on the assemblies, as well as on the rest of your trailer's running gear. Taskmaster helps to solve this problem by match mounting and balancing their assemblies so they're ready to roll when they reach your door.
To do this, Taskmaster uses a laser-guided machine to locate the heavy and light spots of each assembly. They then align the assembly so that lightest part of the tire is near the heaviest part of the wheel. The assembly is then rotated at high speeds to pinpoint the optimal place to apply weights to further balance the tire.
Don't delay your adventures by having to take your trailer to the shop for new tires. Start rolling as soon as possible with easy-to-install, fully balanced tire-and-wheel assemblies from Taskmaster.
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.
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 ordered two mounted trailer tires. The order process was simple and the tires were shipped the next day. Unfortunately I only received one tire, which was UPS fault. I reported to etrailer.com that I only received one tire and they opened an investigation with UPS. After about 10 days I received notice that a replacement tire had been shipped. Two days later I had the second tire. I have to give etrailer.com an A+ for making me a satisfied customer.

Old tires were Hi-Run Radials that came with purchase of enclosed trailer.
Tires I purchased will replace tires of which one had blown out this past summer. Maybe 2000 miles on tires. Have a feeling I rode over object on freeway.
New Tires are rated above what my trailer axles and trailer itself are rated for, but with Higher Rating and Stronger Construction and Increased Speed Rating they should perform for many miles, like cheap insurance.
Thanks: Phil Sr

I purchased this as a spare for my utility trailer in case I am more than 20 km from my home. I haven't needed to use it yet. It is worth the peace of mind to know that I am not leaving equipment on the side of the road unattended.

The 14 in, 8 ply trailer tires & rims worked perfectly on my 2006 2720 SD Trailmanor. Traveled 150 miles no swaying, no heat build up, just a smooth ride..
by: Josh09/14/2019
A while ago I bought a trailer which I had planned to turn into a tiny home. Life happened and plans changed, so the trailer sat in my driveway for two years, during which the already-old tires began to rot. I decided the best move was to sell the trailer, but obviously I have to replace the tires first. I found that ordering the tires already mounted was the best option for me (rather than jacking my trailer up, taking the tires off one side at a time, leaving the trailer jacked up and taking the old wheels somewhere to get new tires put on them... then repeating the process with the other side.) I have no experience with tire specs, wheel sizes, etc. But between reading the specs on the existing tires and the helpful measurement information on this site I was able to order the exact right wheels for my trailer. I ordered two (of four) to start because money's tight, but they arrived on time and in perfect condition, and I replaced the old ones in about 40 minutes. They look great and are perfectly inflated. Couldn't be happier! So simple I ordered the other two immediately after writing this review! Now I can sell my trailer and make that money right back!

- Replacement Dual Wheel Dual Axle Wheels for 16.5 x 6 Rims with 8 on 6-1/2 Inch Bolt PatternFor your 16-1/2 inch dually wheels we don't have an exact match as what you have is an odd size. However, I do have an option for you that will work for your trailer. Since we don't have any combinations that are 16-1/2 inches, you need to replace all 8 and move down to 16-inch wheels which we do have combinations options for. I recommend the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 16" Silver Dual Wheel - Offset - 8 on 6-1/2 - LR G # TTWA16RGWSHD which are rated for speeds up to...
view full answer... - Will Bias or Radial Tires Provide Smoother Ride for Stock TrailerSince radial tires are more for highway use and bias tires have sidewalls that are more stiff for off-road use the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # TTWPRG235R16 is going to give you a much smoother ride quality than the a bias tire. The extra flex in the sidewall of a radial tire not only helps to dissipate heat build-up but it also keeps the ride from being as bouncy as it would with bias tires. If you are needing a wheel as well then I have also attached a link to our selection...

In regards to mounting, most local auto repair shops should be able to assist. Please note, balancing is not required for trailer tires. We do offer this tire pre-mounted as well, the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 16" White Spoke Wheel part # TTWA16RGWSHD.

The ST235/85R16 is just under 1" taller than your current tire, but since only 1/2" will be on the top of the tire you will want to make sure that from the top of your current tires to the bottom of the fender is at least 4.5" as any less...
view full answer... - Can Trailer Tire Size ST225/75-15 be Upgraded to ST235/80-16The larger tire size 235/80-16 will be right at 2-1/2 inches taller in diameter than the current size you have of 225/75-15. If you have the needed clearance for that there's no reason you couldn't upgrade to the larger size. If you have an 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern you'd need the # TTWA16RGWSHD or if you have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern you'd want the part # AM32764.
view full answer... - How Old are Trailer Tires Sold From etrailerWe sell quite a few trailer tires and our stock is always getting rotated. Nothing we have sits on the shelf very long at all before it's sold. Typically the date on the tires we sell will be only a few months old by the time the customer receives them.

The tire tread would be the same and the wheel design would be the same. The tire that comes with this combo is the part # TTWPRG235R16.
view full answer... - Can I Replace 235/80-16 Tires with 235/85-16 Tires on a TrailerIt is best to have at least 4-1/2 inches of clearance between your trailer tire's tread and the underside of the trailer/fender. Of this 4-1/2 inches, 3 inches is directly for tire clearance and the additional 1-1/2 inches is for defection of the suspension. Typically, ST235/80-16 size tires have an overall diameter of 30.9 inches. For ST235/85-16 size tires, the overall diameter is increased to 31.6 inches. Moving up a tire size will bring your tire tread approximately 3/8 of an inch...

I recommend using the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System - Spindle w/ Brake Flange part # TASR7KS01. The Timbren Spindles are a top of the line option featuring an independent design to allow for maximum ground clearance. If you trailer is not already equipped with reinforcement beams, you will want...

If so, I recommend checking out the Provider # TTWA16RGWSHD which is a ST235/85R16 tire and white mod wheel with an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern (if you are not certain what bolt pattern you have I have linked a help article...
view full answer... - Upgrade for 235/75-15 Tires on a Travel TrailerIdeally, you'll want the combined capacity of your tires to meet or exceed the GVWR of your trailer. If your unloaded trailer weight is 5000 lbs and the combined load capacity of your tires is 5820 lbs, you've only got about 800 lbs of remaining tire capacity for your gear/water/propane, which would explain why you're concerned about blowouts. Your current tires sound like they're not rated high enough. We don't offer a 15 inch tire that's rated higher than what you currently have,...
view full answer... - Can 225/75-15 be Replaced with 235/85-16 Size Tire on TrailerThe overall diameter with a 235/85-16 will be 3.2 inches taller than a 225/75-15. Since the additional diameter is split on either side of the hub that means you would have 1.6 inches less fender clearance. The width difference would be one centimeter. If you have an 8 lug wheel you would want the part # TTWA16RGWSHD which comes with a tire rated for 81 mph or if you have a 6 lug wheel you would want the part # AM32764.
view full answer... - What Tire Comes on the Taskmaster Wheel and Tire Combo part # TTWA16RGWSHDThe tire that comes on the Taskmaster Wheel and Tire Combo part # TTWA16RGWSHD is the part # TTWPRG235R16 which is a Load Range G tire with a capacity of 4,400-lb max load at 110 psi and a speed rating of 81 mph.
view full answer... - Recommended Wheel Lug Nut for Taskmaster Tire and Wheel CombinationThat would depend on the stud size of the hubs you plan to install on the Taskmaster Wheel and Tire # TTWA16RGWSHD that you referenced. Typically the recommended shape of lug nut is the 1/2 inch cone shaped lug nut # X1023R. The # CE11051 has the 60 degree coned which is standard and fits 1/2 inch wheel bolts. I have linked the above mentioned products to this page for your convenience.
view full answer... - Availability of Trailer Rim with 8 Lug Bolt Pattern with Tire Size ST235/85R16We have several wheel and tire combos that match the spec you listed that you can check out at the attached link. The most popular option we have though is the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 16" White Spoke Wheel # TTWA16RGWSHD which matches the specs you listed and comes on a white wheel. What's great about the Taskmaster radial tires like what come on this setup is that they have a higher speed rating at 81 mph when compared to most which are only rated for 65 mph.

The process is different from vehicle tires, however, they come ready to install on your trailer. I've attached a review video as well as an article to help.

view full answer... - Recommended Taskmaster Provider Tires With Load Range G For Horse TrailerLooking at your tires, it looks like the middle tread is a little more worn than the rest of the tire. That suggests that your tires are overheating. It can be from overinflating, axle nut being too tight, brakes needing adjustment because they are too tight, etc. The most likely culprit is speed as many trailer tires are only rated for a max speed of 65 mph so traveling faster could cause overheating and tread wear. You seem to be funtioning in your load capacity, so stronger tires...

The Kenda Karrier tire has a 10 ply rating and a load range of E. The maximum load of the tire is 3,640 lbs at 80 psi. The Kenda wheel is a black mod wheel with an 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern.

Blowouts can also occur if you were exceeding the speed rating for the trailer tire. Most are only rated for 65 but the tire of the # TTWA16RGWSHD is rated for 81. Excess speed causes heat build up.

For a basic tire wheel, I recommend the Taskmaster Steel 8-Spoke Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" - 8 on 6-1/2 - White # TTW660865WS4. This wheel has a 4,460 lb load capacity. If you want wheel and tire combinations rated for that load, I recommend the Taskmaster Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 16" White Spoke Wheel - 8 on 6-1/2 - LR G # TTWA16RGWSHD. This combination is rated for 4,400 lbs at 110 psi and has a speed rating of 81 mph maximum.

If you want to go this route I have linked the 16 inch aluminum wheels we carry with 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern (some are rated lower than 3,960 pounds so check the specs!).
