The 5.30-12 is your tire size. We have 3 options for tires in that size.

- Kenda K353 Bias Trailer Tire # AM10066
- Kenda K353 Bias Trailer Tire # AM10068
- Kenda K353 Bias Trailer Tire # AM10064

These all fit a 12" x 4" wheel which is pretty standard for 5.30-12 tires. Any given tire size can typically fit on a range of different wheel widths, so that 1/4 inch of difference shouldn't matter.

Wheel diameters are not measured using the overall diameter. The are measured for diameter where the tire sits so the diameter is less than the overall diameter of the wheel. With 5.30-12 tires you have 12 inch wheels so tire #AM10066 will fit.

We currently have 10 different tire and wheel options for a 5.30-12 size. There are 2 different bolt patterns, so you would need to determine if you have a 4 on 4 or 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. I have included a help article that helps with figuring…

Answer 6

I have never heard of a 6.00-12 tire but theoretically yes, you can use the same 12" rim for a 5.30-12 size tire like part #AM10066 as the last set of numbers refers to the wheel size that the tire fits. You do need to make sure that your tire…

We don't have a combo of the Curt Hitch Ball #C40008 and Curt Ball Mount #C45340. The ball mount is extremely heavy-duty, rated up to 17,000 pounds. I think it's safe to assume you don't have a torque wrench rated up to 450 foot pounds…

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…

Load range B trailer tires are going to have a lower capacity than C load range tires. Basically that, psi rating, and the ply rating are the only differences. A higher load range tire would last a little longer than lower load ranges of the same…
