Bias Tires vs. Radial Tires

Bias vs. radial tire graphic

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.

Bolt Pattern - Odd

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.)

Bolt Pattern - Even

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.)

Bolt Pattern - 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 run these load stars on my 2 ultralight aircraft trailers.



by:

Great tires! Much better than the wore out cracked ones that came with the trailer. I can haul my water now without any worries. Tires showed up aired up a few days after I ordered them. Would definitely buy again from this company.



by:

Bought 5 tire and wheel combinations. They came mounted and ready to go. They had the load range “D” I was looking for. Tires look great. Ready to go fishing!



by:

I was about to order tires somewhere else and my friend who has packages shipped here had a package of trailer tires delivered and I saw the name on the side of the package so I went online to your website. Found exactly what I needed for less than I was going to pay and with free shipping, I believe I got better quality tires for less money and free shipping all because I saw each trailer.com on the side of the box. Thank you again, and I will be telling everybody about you



by:

A while back I purchased a used 5 x 8 trailer. The wheels were starting to rust and the tires were shot! The "tire store" down town wanted a little over $50. to mount a new tire on my rusty wheels....

I happened to find Etrailer on line. I got brand new tires mounted on galvanized wheels for about the same price! They are so easy to deal with! I ended up replacing everything on the trailer (bearings, lights, springs, tires, wheels etc.) from etrailer!

Better sit down for this one: They even called me at home to see how the project was going, and if there was anything else they could do to help....When was the last time someone did that! Certainly not in my lifetime (and I'm over 70!).

It doesn't get any better than this! Go on their website (or call them), get what you need, and be done with it......

Thanks etrailer!

Perfect! Couldnt be better!

Received the order today and I must say the ordering, shipping and customer service is outstanding. Now about the product. The galvanized finish on both wheels leaves a lot to be desired. The single tire appears to be slightly deformed but I think that is just from packaging. One of the rims also has a slight bend near the tire bead. The dot code shows that all three tires are at least a year old. I will mount the tires on my trailer next weekend and attempt to have the single tire mounted on my spare wheel. I will give a rating after I see how they work. I'm not trying to be picky but I expected a little better considering they are new.



by:

fast delivery look good will install tonight, eager to get onto boat trailer , getting ready to fish



by:

got exactly what was ordered and the rims had metal valve stems too - a necessary item if your boat trailer has to go through deep sand. Rims came in two in a box with appropriate packaging. Would definately order again



by:

Great tire/wheel combo. Wheels have metal valve stems. Lowest price in the Web!

1-year and still look brand new. Heavy duty tires. The galvanized Rims have no rust whatsoever.



by:

I love the tire. I also like the metal valve stems that you use.



by:

I use my trailer for handyman work, So some days it carries a few sheets of plywood and others 600lbs of roofing. I needed a high load capacity tire package and they look better then my old boat trailer like wheels. I am going to rewire my trailer and guess were I'm shopping for lights you guessed right eetrailer.

My first impressions of the Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range D - AM30861 are good, everything delivered as expected. Removed old wheels and bolted these on, noticed there is a label recommending to check and re-tighten lug nuts at the first 10-25-50-100 miles. I chose this wheel/tire because it was the highest load rating for my 4'x10' Utility/ATV trailer. I hope the galvanized finish lasts better than paint and I personally think it looks better than painted wheels. I purchased 3 total to have a spare on the trailer and mounted it with a MaxxTow Spare Tire Carrier for 3" x 5" Trailer Frames - 4-Lug and 5-Lug Wheels - MT70214. I also purchased a Master Lock Spare Tire Carrier Lock - 262DAT, but unfortunately the bolts were too long on the spare tire carrier and the lock would not fit. Next time I am at the hardware store I will get a shorter bolt so it will fit.



by:

The tires on my Drift Boat trailer were getting checked. Needed new tires and wheels so looked around at the local discount stores and found some that were
OK but load range B. Saw these tires and wheels at Kenda and bought them. They are a load range D with a heavy hot dip galvanized wheel. Perfect for what I needed. The wheels actually look quite nice. New tires on the trailer and off to go fishing. Thanks Kenda.



by:

5 lug on 4-1/2” bolt pattern worked w/ new 1” thick aluminum adaptor plates that converted obsolete 5 on 5-1/2 to modern 5 on 4-1/2. The new wheels and tires completed my restoration of a 1958 Tee Née boat trailer. Great service high quality product. Your video presentation, of the wheels and tires, was good assurance that we were on the same page before ordering. Thank you etrailer.



by:

Fast shipping!



by:

Placed my order hoping I would get it in a couple of weeks before I left for Maine.
Instead I got it in a "WEEK", how good is that for customer service! I also ordered the spare tire carrier FSTC1000301which came in the same shipment. I mounted it as you can see and it worked out great. Thanks George

Look great and super fast delivery

These are great wheels and tires. Look great and work well for my double wave runner trailer. I highly recommend them.



by:

Wish they had the aluminum wheels my size but the galvanized wheels look nice and were a perfect fit for my snow bear utility trailer. Ordered over the phone with Ed, very polite and knowledgeable.



by:

Just got these yesterday......dropped off at the gate as requested. Picked them up today. Will put them on my boat trailer in a bit. Might even send a picture as they look good. Price and promptness of delivery was excellent on both counts. Etrailer has yet to fail me and I'm not up to date with reviewing my purchases, but I find no fault with them. Good outfit!



by:

The 3.19 center hole was as close as I could find to the 3.25 I needed. Some sanding solved the problem and this will make a great spare for my old Johnson Marine trailer.



by:

OUTSTANDING customer service, communication and EXCELLENT pricing...
Won't shop for trailer tires anywhere else...EVER!

Fast delivery, had tires installed 30 minutes after arrival.... look good... Thanks!!!



by:

I got the 5.30 X 12 inch tire/wheel combo, load range D, for a small utility trailer, so they are fine for the intended use. The tires are nice but the wheels are chinese made and the galvanized coating is not as nice appearing as other wheels in my garage that are 20+ years old. Like I said, they are going to be fine for the "Old Reliable" trailer on which they are mounted, but I just hope that the galvanized finish stands the test of time. The price was good, with no shipping cost, and etrailer.com was fast on the order and the wheels got here pretty quick....

How did your galvanized coating hold up over time. Do you think the white wheel would have been better?

Rachael H.

8/17/2015

Thanks for your feedback Lamar, overall we have received better feedback on the traditional steel wheels that are painted. The galvanized coated wheels have not been as highly rated as the wheels that are likely like your 20 year old wheels in your garage.

  • Comparing 12" Tire Options ST145/R12 And 5.30-12
    Hey Neil. The # AM30861 and # AM35354 are very similar in size. The Kenda Karrier ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM35354 is actually slightly smaller in diameter than the Kenda 5.30-12 tires, so out of the two 12" tires you mentioned, this will be your best bet for an upgrade. I do still suggest that you measure to make 100% sure you will have enough clearance to fit a tire 5.7" wide and 21.3" in diameter.

  • Will Kenda Wheel and Tire AM30861 Work Well on Pontoon Boat Trailer
    The Kenda 5.30-12 Wheel and Tire part # AM30861 would be a great option most likely but you need to make sure the tire size and weight capacity match. The tire size is 5.30-12. You would need to check the sidewall of your current tire to determine if that is what you have and what you would need as a replacement. The weight capacity of the tire is 1,250 lbs so you would need to make sure you trailer loaded weighs less than 2,500 lbs.

  • Can ST145R12 Radial Tires Replace 5.30-12 Bias Tires on Boat Trailer
    The difference between the # AM31202 and your current tires is going to be negligible. A Kenda 5.30-12 like the # AM30861 has an outer diameter of 21.9" and section width of 5.5". The Kenda ST145R12 Radial Trailer Tire actually has a smaller outer diameter of 21.3" and a section width of 5.7". This means you will gain 0.3" of clearance on the top and lose 0.1" of clearance on the inside of the tire which won't make a difference. Upgrading to radial tires is definitely a good idea and...

  • Recommended 5.30-12 Tires With Load Rating Of D
    Moving up a higher load range will not only increase your load capacity, but will also increase the sidewall ply strength, so you will be less likely to have a blow out. I recommend the Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" White Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range D # AM30859 for your application or the galvanized wheel # AM30861. These combinations use the same tire which is rated for 1,250 lb capacity at 105 psi. You want to always run trailer tires at their max psi when inflated while...

  • How Long Do Trailer Tires Typically Last
    Trailer tires rarely actually wear out due to mileage. Typically they get old enough that they start to dry rot which turns into leaking and then also can turn into the tire failing on the highway. Right around 6 years is the standard recommended trailer tire life. I attached a help article on trailer tires for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Axle-Less Suspension System For Small Home Made Trailer
    I recommend going with an axle-less system. Due to the size of the trailer you will have a much easier time finding the right fit and you will not need to worry about the suspension like springs or hangers. The system I recommend is part # A12RS440. This system is designed with a capacity up to 1,200-lbs and has hubs with a 4 on 4 bolt pattern already installed. I have attached a link to a review video for this system you can check out. The 12-inch tire/wheel combo I recommend is the...

  • Upgrading Tires And Rims On A Boat Trailer From 12" To 13"
    Hey Neil thanks for your question. I will start by saying that we should be able to determine exactly what size tires you can or can't use and we can avoid the need for a return. I have linked our return policy for you below if you want to read it over. As far as upgrading the rims on you boat trailer, it will completely depend on what kind of clearance you have in the wheel well/fender area. Our rule of thumb is that you want 3" between the tire and the fender on all sides, and at least...

    I suggest going with the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" Galvanized Spoke Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR D # AM31202 as it has a speed rating of 81 mph and a weight capacity of 1,220 pounds at 65 psi. The galvanized wheel will be corrosion resistant, and the radial tire will stay cooler while driving on the road, so will extend the life of the tire.

    Since 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.

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.

    You can go either way on this. That being said, if you wanted to go with something bigger, like the Kenda 5.30-12 # AM30861, you will need to measure the spacing you have on the trailer to make sure it will fit. This will have a width of 5.5 inches and a diameter of 21.9 inches. You will need a minimum of 3 inches from the top of the tire to the bottom of the fender, and then at least 1.5 inches from the back of the tire to the wall of the fender or the frame.

  • Upgrading Boat Trailer Suspension For Highlander 16' Trailer For 2,000LB Boat
    My first concern is determining the weight of your boat and trailer.

    Yes, the 5.30-12 trailer tire is a larger tire that can easily replace what you have now of 4.80-12. This tire size can fit on the same wheels you have now so you could get by with just a replacement tire like with part # AM10068 or if you wanted an all new setup you could use the part # AM30861 for a 5 lug wheel or part # AM30710 for a 4 lug. This will be right at 1.5 inches taller than you have now. The next size up will be significantly larger in diameter and width and would not fit...

Some people will run tires at a lower psi rating but since Kenda hasn't come out with a listed weight rating per psi rating you'll need to stick with the posted psi on the tire sidewall.
