It sounds like you're looking for the Kenda K353 Bias Trailer Tire - 5.30-12 - Load Range D # AM10068, which has a 1250-lbs capacity with the Load Range D; a set of these tires will allow you to carry up to 2500-lbs total (trailer and payload). These are the highest load range available with a 5.30 x 12 tire.

Although we do not have a 155R/12C 83/81Q tire available, I was able to obtain a bit of information about it. That radial tire has a section width of 6.18 inches, an outer diameter of 21.4 inches, and a maximum load rating of 1080 pounds. The closest…

When pulling a pop-up camper, I would pick radial tires over bias ply tires mainly because they run cooler and because of their flexibility they have better contact with the road. Neither of the types of tires are rated to run at 70 mph. Trailer…

Answer 6

The 4.80-12 tires you have on your jet ski trailer are 20.7" diameter x 4.9" wide. The best option we have to go with a larger width is a 5.30-12 tire which measures 21.9" diameter x 5.5" wide. For a 5.30x12 tire the highest rated…

Answer 7

We highly recommend a trailer's spare tire always be the same size as the current tires. The reason is if you use one tire that is a different size than the others, not only will all of the tires wear quicker and unevenly, but the trailer…

Answer 9

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…

Answer 10

Since both a ST145/R12 size tire, like the Kenda Karrier S-Trail #AM10130, and a 5.30-12 size tire, like the Kenda K353 #AM10068, fit a 12 inch wheel, a ST145/R12 size tire can replace a 5.30-12 size tire. Keep in mind that these tires do have…

Answer 11

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…

Answer 12

Load range B trailer tires are going to have a lower capacity than C load range tires. Basically that, psi rating, and the ply rating are the only differences. A higher load range tire would last a little longer than lower load ranges of the same…
