Trailer Wheel and Tire Size 5.30-12 Recommendation for 2003 SNOWBEAR TRAILER
Question:
According to the plate and original tires on my Snowbear trailer the correct tire is 5.30 X12 C and wheel size is 5 lug 12 X4 J. I just shredded a brand new set of very cheap Harbor Freight tires carrying a load of firewood that would not have been an issue with the original Carlisle tires. I need a good set of tires and rims that meet or exceed the originals. I am confused by the rims size because you list your 5 lug rims for that tire size as 12 X4 1/2 not 12 X4 J. Can you help me understand what I need and recommend a load range C or D that will work on my trailer? Thanks

In the size of 5.30-12 the best option we have with the highest capacity is the Kenda Wheel and Tire part # AM30861 which has a tire with a Load Range of D and a tire capacity of 1,250 lbs at 105 psi.
I attached a review video for this wheel combo for you to check out as well.
