What Does ST in Trailer Tire Size ST225/75D15 Mean
Question:
Hey Jameson,I need your help in figuring out which is the better choice in replacing my 7.00/15 tires on my 16'tandem axle car trailer.I am currently using a set of Ford factory wheels which are 15x7.The 7.00/15 tires are too narrower for these rims.I'm interested in the following a set of Contender ST225/75R15 range E or Loadstar / Kenda ST225/75D15 range D.Accordingly to the detail of the ST225/75D15 tire it would fit a 15x7 rim. Any help would be greatly appreciated.I have been studying these tires for three nights now. Thanks, P.S. My axles rating is 3500lbs per axle.That might help

ST on a tire size like the Loadstar ST225/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST96 you referenced indicates "special trailer" which means it was designed specifically for use in a trailer application. This type of tire can only be used on a trailer. For more info on trailer tires check out the help article I attached. There's more info on the different trailer tire constructions as well.
