Can Tire Size of 165/65-8 Replace 4.80-8

Question:

Will this mount on a 4.8 x 8 rim to give me a wider dot tire on my wheel barrow. How much larger in diameter is it from the kenda 4.80 x 8 dot tire? I have extra wheel/tire clearance.

The tire size you have now of 4.80x8 is designed to fit a wheel width of 3-3/4 inches whereas the size of the # AM1HP22 is wider and needs a 5-3/8 inch wide wheel. You'd need to stick with your current tire size which we offer with the part # AM10002.
