Tire Repair Tools

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…

Good morning, Cliff. As of today (3/27/24) we are expecting the #KE33JR tire/wheel combo to be in stock in about 2 weeks. Hopefully this means we can take our own pictures and put them on the site within maybe about 3-4 weeks from now. What I can…

The slight gap you see is normal. The drum is not supposed to make contact with the brake mounting plate. There are some instances when mixing brands of brakes, hubs, and axles, that won't line up properly but in this case it is normal. I did…

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

The two sizes you mentioned are pretty similar and fit many of the same 15 inch wheels. The 205/75-15 fits rim widths of 5 inch to 6-1/2 inch whereas the 225/75-15 fits widths that are 5 inch to 6 inch. The 205 is 27.1 inches tall and the 225 is 28.4…

Hey Tom, you are on the right track. I checked out your 2023 Jayco Jay Flight 284 BHS and it does have an underslung coupler so the correct B and W Continuum weight distribution would be the part #BW88FR. An underslung coupler is basically one that…

Hey Willis, we have one steel wheel that covers everything you are lookin for with the Dexstar part #AM20766 which is a 16 inch diameter steel wheel with an 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern and a .5 inch offset.

Hey Lee, so in reality you may not ever have an issue using different Load Ranges on a trailer but it's really not recommended as the tires will have to have different PSIs which could in theory create ride issues.

The three most common lug stud sizes for a trailer are 1/2"-20, 9/16"-18, and 5/8"-18. In order to make sure you get the correct lug nuts you need to measure the lug studs on the trailer now as we have no way to look this up for…

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…

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…

Do you by any chance mean 235/80-16 and 235/85-16? Because there isn't a 275 trailer tire size that I have seen. If so then the widths are the same between the two 235 sizes. The difference is overall diameter. The 235/80-16 is 30.9 inches in…
