Question

Question:

I have to purchase 5 new trailer tire and rims. I put on 2 new Dexter 2200 lb axles. I have to go with a 10inch rim because of the electric brakes. I need a Range C, 5 x 4.5 mounting. What I would like to find is a 205/50-10 I could live with a 205/65-10 but really would like a 205/50-10 Does someone make those for highway travel?

For a 10 inch trailer rim we only have the 205/65-10 sized tires.

For a white wheel with the Range C tire size you need you would want the part # AM3H390 or for a galvanized steel wheel part # AM3H400.
