Can 235/80-16 Tires on 5th Wheel Be Swapped Out for 235/85-16 Tires
Question:
I have a 2017 grand design reflection 323bhs with 235/80/16 tires currently on it. I was looking at the https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Tires-and-Wheels/Kenda/AM10501.html Will these fit on my camper?

Expert Reply:
The 235/80-16 and 235/85-16 tires are very close dimensionally. The 235/80-16 is about 31 inches in diameter by 9.4 inches wide while the 235/85-16 tire is 31.6 inches in diameter by 9.37 inches wide. Both tires will fit on a 6, 6-1/2, 7 or 7-1/2 inch wide wheel.
If your 5th wheel has at least 4 inches of clearance between the top of the tire and the underside of the wheel well when it's under load, you'll be fine going with the slightly taller tire.
