Carlisle Sport Trail LH Bias Trailer Tire - ST205/85D14.5 LRF

Have had these tires for almost a year on my lite duty motorcycle trailer. It is a 2000Lb trailer and I usually tow mine and my wife's bikes across country while on vacation. I have just over 8000 miles on these tires and they are holding up better than any other set I have had before. Just came back from the Black Hills and a southern California trip with no issues. 90% Hwy 70MPH average speed. There is about 1800lbs on them (Bikes and trailer) I keep the air pressure at the recommended 80psi. I've checked the rolling temp and when it's in the 90's ambient they seem to stay at around 135deg F at 70 to 75mph. Much less than my previous tires that ran at about 160 in the 90's.. After just over 8000miles the center is wearing faster than the edge tread but that is what I usually see happen. I would highly recommend these for a lite duty utility trailer.

Great quality tire

Great value. Seem to be of good quality. Will buy again.

Decent tire, much better than what came on the trailer. I wish it didn’t come so flat, that made it harder to seat the bead.

I did not have a spare for this 12 inch utility trailer tire and damaged a tire on a Sunday. Les Schwab was closed but on Monday they mounted this tire on MY RIM, but charged me $97. This tire without a rim on Amazon is $44. I had to return it only because I found this with a rim and am using it as a spare on my HF utility fold-up trailer. Great tire, great buy.

Nice tires but they are made in China

In the past I've used Carlisle tires for every trailer I've had, but this was the first time I've needed on in 12". Its for a pull-behind motorcycle trailer, which I weighed loaded at 410lbs. I ran the pressure at 40psi because of the light weight, but even still the tires were showing center treadwear within 2,500mi. I dropped the pressure to 30psi and they did start to wear more evenly, but within 6,000mi they were still worn out. For me that was only 2.5 months.The tires themselves were easy to mount and sure-footed on backroads. They did fine on gravel roads as well, and what little interstate I did they handled it no problem. Frequently I tow at 65-70mph and wanted tires with a high speed rating like these, but I can't afford to replace tires so frequently. If you only do occasional towing this is much less a concern.

fast delivery, thanks, they worked. good

Very pleased with the 4.80-12 as ordered. Took a while to get here but finally did overall very pleasant

Was very happy to find this tire on Amazon as they are becoming hard to find elsewhere.

Beau , bon Pas cher ! Super achat!
