Trailer Tire Recommendation for Size 4.80-12
Question:
Is there a difference between a LoadStar trailer tire 4.80 x 12 and an Eco Trailer tire, in terms of quality.....? Are they made by different companies? Thanks.

We do not carry the Eco brand of trailer tires but I can tell you that Loadstar has a more reputable name overall in the trailer tire world than the Eco brand so in terms of quality between just those two that's where I would lean. That said, your best option for a trailer tire in the size of 4.80-12 that you referenced is the Taskmaster tire part # TT48012C as unlike the other tires in this size it is the preferred radial tire style and has the highest speed rating of 81 mph.
I attached a review video for this tire for you to check out as well.
