Hi there, i have 145R12 tire load range D on my tent trailer currently. But it’s hard to find these type tire in the market. Can I use 5.3-12 instead? I’m also in need of two 7” x1-1/4”brake assemblies. Found them on your website with great prices. Thank you!

You sure can!

The 145/R12 tire you have on your tent trailer measures in at 5.7" wide and 21.3" tall where the 5.30-12 tire you mentioned measures 5.5" wide and 21.9" tall. Since they are so close in size that can be interchanged with zero fitment issues.

With that said we actually have the exact 145/R12 tire you are looking for, the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # AM10130. This tire is not only the same size, but has the same load range D rating as your current tires.

We do also have the 7" x 1-1/4" braking assemblies you are looking for. I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 7" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 2,000 lbs # AKEBRK-2 which includes both left and right assemblies.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
