205/65-10 Load Range E Tire for Highway Use
Question:
there is a note on your website about this tire that is not good for long range on a trailer. What would be recommended for high speeds and long range?

Expert Reply:
The Kenda # AM1HP56 tire you'd looked at is a bias-ply. Radial tires run more smoothly and cooler for highway use than bias ply tires do, but folks have been using bias ply tires on the highway for years without issue. If you keep the tires properly inflated, keep your speeds down to a reasonable level (just because a tire carries an 87 mph speed rating does NOT mean it's safe to pull a trailer that fast) and don't overload the trailer, the # AM1HP56 would work very well for you.
