Could a 4.80-12 Wheel and Tire be Replaced with a ST175/80R13 on a Pioneer Pop up Camper
Question:
I have 4.80 X 12 on this pop up camper but I have added to the frontthat gives me 4 ft of space to put on a quad. I have added a metal tool box on the back and a clam shell on top to put sleep bags and camp chairs in. I am wondering if I can go to this thirteen inch wheel and tire to handle this extra weight? Thanks

Expert Reply:
You would be increasing the overall diameter of the tires from 20.5 inches to 24.1 inches if you went with the part # AM31985 that you referenced. If you have room for 1.8 inches less of fender clearance then the wheel and tire you mentioned would fit just fine.
