What Size Wheel Does Trailer Tire Size 5.70-8 Fit
Question:
Hello, I recently bought an old motorcycle trailer as in, one that carries motorcycles with equally old tires. They are marked as 5.70/5.00-8 which I assume equates to your Kenda K353 5.70-8 tires, but my rims have a diameter of 9 inches 4 on 4 bolts. Will these tires fit my rims, or should I get the tires with new rims?

Expert Reply:
The tire size you need is a 5.70-8 like the part # AM10013 that you referenced. The wheel diameter difference that you mentioned is because you are measuring the mounting flange as well which does not factor in terms of actual wheel diameter and it is an inch tall total. So basically if you were to measure a trailer wheel you would need to subtract an inch from overall diameter to get correct diameter.
