Radial Tires vs. Bias Tires

Radial tire vs bias tire graphic

Radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway. The cords on a radial tire are positioned at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel so that they lay across the width of the tire from wheel lip to wheel lip. This construction prevents the cords from rubbing against one another when the tire flexes, unlike the cords on a bias ply tire. As a result, radial tires have less rolling resistance and heat buildup, which leads to a longer tread life and improved steering at higher speeds.

Video Transcript for Checking Out the Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire

Hello, everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the Kenda Karrier, ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire in a load range C. Now this is an ST tire, which means it's a special trailer tire, has sturdy sidewalls so that it can handle heavy loads. Now this is created specifically for trailers. It's not intended for use on other vehicles. It is a Ken Karrier Special trailer radial tire, uses steel belts and then polyester plies, which combine for superior function and long life.

If you look at the tread, it is a silica-infused tread, and on the tread blocks you'll notice the openings or the cuts in them. Those are sites which help reduce hydroplaning. This will also offer excellent handling in off pavement situation. We mentioned it's an ST tire. It does meet the DOT, Department of Transportation specifications.

The wheel size this will fit is a 13 by 4 1/2 wide wheel, 13 by 5 inch wide wheel, and a 13 by 5 1/2 inch wide wheel. The tire size, which is stamped on the sidewall, ST170, ST is for special trailer. 175/80R13, R means it's a radial tire. Section width, 6.8 inches. The overall diameter on this when it's inflated is 24.1 inches.

And this tire is a load range C, which means it's a six ply rated tire, has a maximum load capacity of 1,375 pounds at 50 PSI. And the last thing is all the trailer tires are now coming through with a speed rating stamped on them and it's stamped on the sidewall with a letter designation. And where it's at is right after the tire size you'll see two numbers for the load index and then the letter M. Speed rating M will mean that it's an 81 mile per hour speed rating. But that should do it for a review of the Kenda Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire in a load range C.

Took the tires to my local tire shop to get installed and the owner said these were good tires, and wished that he could get them from his supplier. Time will tell how well they wear. Thanks

In our fast paced world where customer service seems to be a thing of the past, I am always amazed when shopping on etrailer. Prompt service, fast shipping and people who actually follow-up to ensure that you are satisfied!

This should be your one stop location for trailer parts.

I pull my boat on interstate to most my fishing locations on average I was changing the bias tire I was using every 2500 to 3000 miles. Sine installing the kenda radial I have pulled boat to Pennsylvania and back over a thousand miles and tires still look new. More than pleased



by:

Etrailer had everything we needed to repack our trailer bearings and replace our tire. Delivery of 4 trailer tires and replacement bearing washers was free and they arrived sooner than expected.



by:

Im.a bit disappointed. Ive bought from.e trailer many times over the years. I just recieved my trailer tires only to find a date code of ( 1021 ) meaning they are 3 1/2 years old ! An article on your site says they should be replaced every 3-6 years.. So i guess i need to start looking to replace them even thpugh I havent mounted them yet! Certainly makes me think twice about buying them again from here.



by:

Perfect match to what I had originally. Got it mounted this morning and back on the trailer. Ready for the next adventure.
Thanks again etrailer.com. And a shout out to Justin for being helpful on all my orders. etrailer.com is my go-to for all of my trailer needs.



by:

I actually bought 3 of theses and wheels for an overlanding trailer I built from a CE Smith boat trailer and other parts I bought from etrailer. I am happy with these tires and wheels as well as the trailer and other parts.



by:

Not much to say. Bought for a spare and haven’t used it. Just what I thought it would be. Bought to match the original tires



by:

Exactly what I needed to match existing tires



by:

I love doing business with e trailer . Customer service is exceptional. Eric is a top notch 5 star customer service representative!



by:

Love etrailer and the Karrier tires they sell. I put a lot of miles on my fishing boat and I only trust the best to get me to my next fishing adventure. Extremely easy and fast delivery!



by:

These new wheels and tires look fantastic! I am beyond pleased with the upgrade!



by:

After some research, I decided to buy these tires for my boat trailer. I had them mounted and balanced. So far, I’m very pleased. Pulls straight and smooth and handles interstate speeds well. No visible signs of problems. I check the pressures regularly. My neighbor bought the same tires based on my experience. I’d buy these again.



by:

Fast, speedy delivery of a set of tires. Customer service staff is outstanding with answers to questions within minutes. Thank you all.



by:

The tires look good but haven't been driven on yet. I'm not sure this is the place to raise this concern but shipping packaging needs to be improved. 4 tires ordered and boxed 2 per box Both boxes were open when delivered even though they were stapled close. I guess I'm lucky I received all 4 tires. It could of been due to the carrier's handling practices. The carrier was UPS. Etrailer may want to look at Tire Rack's packaging for shipping. Seems to work better plus no cardboard to recycle.



by:

These tires are holding up very well , I haul a 1300 lb Lincoln SA200 welding machine on a small 8 ft trailer and these tires dont even squish



by:

These are the best trailer tires i've found. They have the E load range rating, the highest I've found. I use them on a two wheel dolly pulled behind my motorhome. They take a really beating on the road. The first set that I used had about 11,000 miles on them and may have had more life left but I'm planning a long trip this fall and don't want to take a chance on a blowout as they wear down.
I recommend them for trailer tires.



by:

The experience of ordering my trailer tires online from etrailer.com was excellent. They kept me completely updated on the order and shipping status.i had the tires installed on Saturday and only had to drive about 18 miles back to my campsite. I am a camp host at Deschutes Rec Area State Park in Oregon and won't be moving till the 1st of September. Having read reviews about the tires before purchase, I expect them to handle very well.



by:

I've been running these Karrie radials on my tri-axle trailer, which holds a 17,000lb boat since 2016. Overall I'm satisfied. They are a smooth pulling over the road tire. I have had one let go while towing. But overall, they have been good.



by:

Very happy with the tire setup for tandem trailer
Performed well under heavy loads
Currently at 35K miles, mostly @ 70/80mph
I will purchase again



by:

After a few trips and several hundred miles, I am quite happy with these tires. Traveling at highway speeds, up to 70mph for more than an hour, the tires never got warm. Stored outside with no ground contact over NE Ohio winter and only lost a couple pounds of pressure.



by:

This trailer tire has seen 3500 highway miles at high speeds with an approximately 1800 pound load (trailer and Goldwing motorcycle). The tire is quiet and tracks well. The tread wear is very slight and even. There are no chunks missing from the tread pattern like I've seen with other trailer tires that take the kind of abuse I put them through. Absolutely no signs of weather checking on the sidewalls. Periodic tire re-inflation frequency is perfectly acceptable. All tires need occasional refilling. This tire scarcely looses 5 - 8 PSI over a period of a year.



by:

Great wheel and tire, I was due for an upgrade on my enclosed trailer, delivery was super fast. I upgraded to these load D rated tires over my old load C. Great service from etrailer



by:

I needed a tire that could carry more than 2000 pounds (per tire). There are very few trailer tires that do that. This ST 205/75R14 had specification that is geared towards strength - side walls and load.
Being able to ship to my tire mounting shop was a benefit also.

  • Spare Tire Needed For A 155/80R13 Tire Size
    Hey John, It looks like we don't offer that specific tire size so we wouldn't be able to offer you just a spare. If you wanted to switch out your wheels/tires completely and get an extra spare then the closest option with a 4 on 4 wheel bolt pattern would be the 175/80R13 which is 24.02" in diameter and 6.89" wide compared to your current 22.76" diameter and 6.10" width. If you wanted to go this route so that you would need to check your clearance from the wheels horizontally to the...
