Recommended 205/75R14 Tire Replacement for Camper Currently Using Bias Ply Tires
Question:
We recently bought a used camper that has ST205/75 R14B tires on it that need replaced before we can use it. What would you recommend?

I recommend the Kenda Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C # AM10234. These Kenda tires are the same size tires that you're currently using, but are a radial tire, opposed to the bias ply tires that are currently on your camper.
Radial tires have a less stiff of a sidewall and are going to provide you with better ground contact, traction, stability, and tread wear. Additionally, because the plies of the tire do not overlap, they're less prone to heating up; heat is the main cause of malfunctioning of tires and a tire that won't heat up as much is less prone to heat related blowouts. On top of the advantage you're getting with swapping to a radial tire, these Kenda Karrier tires have a Load Range C and will handle a greater vertical load than the Load Range B tires you currently have.
I've linked a video review on the Kenda Karrier # AM10234 tires that you might want to have a look at, as well.
