Availability of 4.80-12 Tires With a High Speed Rating

Question:

I’m looking to purchase a Farm and Fleet Teske Mfg 4x8 trailer and convert it into a kayak trailer for my family. They come with 4.8x12 tires. We’d use this on roadtrips, which would include highway use. Do you have any wheel tire combos that are 4.8x12, fit this trailer and can hit speed limits of 70-80mph? Thanks for any and all insight you can provide.

We do indeed offer wheel/tire combos that feature a 4.80-12 tire. If you were needing a wheel with a 4-on-4 bolt pattern, I'd recommend part # AM30620 which is a 4.80-12 bias-ply tire on a white spoked wheel with a 4-on-4 bolt pattern.

If you needed a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern, use # TA98RR which is a radial tire on a white spoked wheel. Both tires carry an 81 mph speed rating.

I've linked you to our trailer tire help articles which I hope you'll find informative.
