Can 145/R12 Tires Replace 5.30-12 Tires
Question:
Hi, I have a trailer that is 1,800 lbs and is rated for 5.30-12 tires. I currently have bias tires but would like radial for the higher speed rating. Would the ST145/R12 Kenda Radial Tires be a good replacement or should I stick with the recommended tire size as radials. Thank you.

Hey Ryan, thanks for reaching out!
The Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10130 will fit just fine in place of your current 5.30-12 tires. It will be slightly shorter and slightly wider but not enough to make a difference.
