Taller Tire Size Recommendation to Replace 4.80-8 Trailer Tire
Question:
I currently have 4.80-8 tires on 8x3.75 rims, 5x4 1/2bp. Id like to go a little bigger on the tires if possible. Which tires can you recommend? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
For a tire size that is 2 inches taller than your 4.80-8 tire size that will still fit your current rims you would want the 5.70-8 size tire like the part # AM10013 that has a capacity of 1,075 lbs at 100 psi.
For a lower capacity tire that doesn't require nearly as much tire pressure we have the part # AM10010 which has a capacity of 715 lbs at 50 psi.
