The 12 inch tires we offer are bias ply only. We do not offer radials for a 12 inch tire. The bias ply tires we offer are part # AM10062 for a tire with a load range C, which has a maximum load of 990 lbs at 90 psi.

The load range B tire we offer is part # AM10060. This tire has a maximum load of 785 lbs at 60 psi.

I have attached a helpful article about tires you can check out.

It is definitely not common for a 12" tire like your 4.80-12 to be installed on a 13" wheel, but depending on where you measured the wheel it may look like a 13" wheel even though it is truly 12". If you take a look at the 30…

Not all 4.80 -12 size tires have the same tire width or overall diameter, though they are very similar. We carry 4 different 4.80-12 size tires, and those these measurements are very close, they are not all the same. The Kenda K353 Load Range C…

It is highly recommended that you have the same tires on your trailer and the reason is that tires with different load ranges will almost certainly have a different tire pressure, or can even be a different size. For example, your trailer may have a…

Yes, a 4.80-12 trailer tire uses a 12 inch diameter wheel that is 4 inches wide. The 4.80 spec is the width of the tire. I have attached a link to all of our 12 inch x 4 inch trailer wheels for you to check out. They come with either a 4 on 4 inch…

Answer 7

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…

Yes, a 205/75R15 will fit a 15 by a 6 inch rim like the part #AM20522 that you referenced. For a 225/75R15 for when you are ready the part #TTWTRTM2257515D would be a great choice.

The extra loop is referred to as a hand saver loop. It simply provides a safer place to grab the end of the strap for when you're pulling out slack from the winch drum. The snap hooks can get torn up a little, and could be rough on your fingers…

Answer 12

If the sidewall of your 4.80-12 size tires say 90 psi then that is what you want them to be when the tires are cold (after they have been sitting for a while like overnight). This is the psi rating that the manufacturer has tested and approved to be…
