Review of Taskmaster Trailer Tires and Wheels - Tire with Wheel - TA22MR Video

To get you to a higher speed rating of 81 mph I would go with the Kenda Karrier ST145/r12 par #AM31202 which is only a little bigger and has the higher speed rating you are wanting. It has the correct 5 lug wheel bolt pattern as well.

The torque spec depends on the lug nut type, wheel size, and material. For the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" Galvanized Spoke Wheel #AM31202 the torque spec would be 75-85 ft-lbs. I have attached a chart below for your…

Trailer wheel and tires like the part #AM32545 do not get balanced as it really doesn't make a difference and most of the time the weights just get bounced off due to the rougher suspension on trailers compared to vehicles. So if you wanted to…

Yes, you can replace your load range C tires with load range D tires without issue. It will only become any issue when you go down load ranges, not up. The tires will have the same overall diameter as long as they are the same size regardless of…

The 4.80X12 2 ply tire at 60 psi that you have is a Load Range B tire. The other 4 ply tire at 90 psi should be a Load Range C tire. When the inflation pressure is higher that will indicate a higher load range. The Load Range B tire should have a…

I spoke with my contact at CE Smith regarding the Trailer Hub Assembly #CE13100 that you reference. She stated that they use an NLGI #2 red grease like the LubriMatic LMX Industrial Strength Grease #L11390. This will be compatible with the grease…

The pilot hole diameter of a wheel is only important when dealing with hub centric wheels, which are more typically found on passenger vehicles. Standard trailer wheels are centered on the lugs, so as long as you match up the bolt pattern, the wheels…

Whenever available I always recommend going with trailer tires that are rated for higher than 65 mph. It's too easy to accidentally go faster than 65 on the highway even when pulling a trailer so it's always a good idea to have some cushion…

The Kenda Wheel and Tire part #AM30620 and the Taskmaster part #TA89RR you referenced are very similar in a lot of ways. White wheel, 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern, Load Range of C, but the big difference is the speed rating. The Taskmaster is rated for…

While there is a similar option for you, the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized #AKIHUB-545-2-G-1K is only for 10" to 12" wheels. For an option that will work with 8" wheels, uses the same L44643…

I recommend replacing your 20.5 x 8-10 size bias tires with the Taskmaster 4.80R12 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel #TA98RR. The wheel is a little bigger, but it has the same 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and the tire itself has a…

The 145/80-12 tires would be about an inch wider and an inch taller than your current 4.80-12 tires. The 1 inch height difference would raise your ride height by a half inch, and the wider tread would provide more pavement contact for greater…
