Hello,
I need to get tires for my trailer. The previous owner had car tires on it. They are p175/80R/13. I want to replace them with the correct tire, unless it is not cost effective. I will only be using the trailer to get the boat into and out of our lake. But just in case, I'd like to have tires that can be used on the highway.
I bought a Carlisle USA Trail 4.80-12 LRB, mounted on the correct lug pattern rim. I know it is smaller than the car tires the P.O. had on it. There is no way of telling what the correct size tire should be. These tires I bought are load range "B", 2 plies nylon cords, and have a maximum load capacity of 785 pounds. Will these tires be sufficient for what I need?
The boat I will be trailering is a 17 foot fiberglass deck boat, with an 85 hp outboard.
Thanks for your help,
Tripp
