Larger Tires to Replace 5.30-12 of Trailer
Question:
Okay I have a 1720 Lb. Capacity harbor freight trailer with the 5.3 in. x 12 in. diameter tires. If I wanted to upgrade to larger tires what kind options do you have? Im sure you been asked this same question thousands of times but bear with a newbie, after searching I came across your products and it looks like you might have a cost effective solution. Thanks in advance.

The next larger tire size in overall diameter than your 5.30-12 is the tire size 175/80-13 like the # AC13R45SMQ which is on a 5 lug wheel or the part # AM3S030 which is a 4 lug. This will give you about 3 inches of additional height.
