Would the Karrier ST145R12 Radial Trailer Tire AM10140 and Wheel LH45FR Work Well on a Pontoon
Question:
I have a tandem axle 24foot pontoon trailer with 20.5/8x10 bias ply tires with galvanized wheels. Rarely driven more than a few miles. Planing a 400 mile round trip to sw florida from orlando. Would these be a wise choice to replace.

As long as the bolt pattern of the # LH45FR would match what you have on your pontoon boat this wheel and tire combo would work well. The tire would end up about an inch taller in diameter so you might check for fender clearance. You'll want at least 3-1/2 inches minimum. These wheels and tires are not sold mounted. You would need to have them mounted at a local shop upon arrival.
The bolt pattern of the wheel is 5 on 4-1/2 inch. I attached a review video for the wheel and the tire for you to check out as well.
