Kenda® Karrier (KR35) ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire (Load Range C) - 13" Steel MOD Wheel (4 on 4.0 Bolt Pattern)

Say goodbye to stressful towing! This Kenda tire features a special tread compound that is infused with silica for maximum grip and control, especially in wet and cold weather.

In addition to the improved grip, which usually decreases a tire's tread life, this tire is designed to be durable and resistant to wear and tear. The silica-infused tread compound of the Kenda Loadstar KR35 boosts trailer control and traction in wet and cold conditions- exactly where you need it most. Its angled sipes and pitch count help disperse water effectively, reducing the risk of hydroplaning and keeping your trailer planted firmly on the road. In addition, the five-rib design of the tire ensures even wear across the tread surface, which boosts the longevity of the tire and gives you long lasting traction for countless hauls. Lastly, the KR35's unique tread arc design guarantees optimal road contact, providing a smooth and stable drive. This helps to minimize trailer sway so you can drive relaxed and enjoy the trip rather than worry about your trailer.  With all of these features, you get a tire that performs well in all weather and on any surface, whether paved or off-road. Let the adventure's begin!

Perfect for:

• Campers: Great grip and handling on and off-road, making it ideal for camping trips.
• Boat trailers: Reliable on wet and slippery boat ramps, ensuring easy loading and unloading.
• Utility/dump trailers: Extremely durable and provides excellent traction on rough job sites with dirt, mud, and debris.

Kenda Karrier Loadstar KR35 Features:

• Superior cold & wet handling: Silica makes the tire flexible in cold temperatures and maintains grip on wet surfaces, providing better braking control and less trailer sway on snowy or icy roads.
• Increased fuel economy: Despite improved performance in wet and cold conditions which usually decreases a tire's fuel economy, the silica reduces rolling resistance, enhancing fuel efficiency.
• Decreased wear: Silica increases the tire's strength and resistance to wear, making it durable enough to handle mile after mile!

Kenda MOD Trailer Wheel Features

Built to Last: Using advanced technology like automated roll-forming, stamping, welding, and robotic assembly, Kenda wheels are designed to be strong and durable, meeting or exceeding industry standards.

Durable Finish: Kenda wheels go through a detailed process starting with a thorough cleaning to remove any impurities. They are then coated with electrically charged paint and finished with multiple layers of powder coating. This results in a superior finish that is highly resistant to corrosion.

Please note: For image quality purposes, the Galvanized wheel photo features a 5-lug pattern. This is due to a higher color quality in the image. The wheel that comes in this combination will be a 4-lug bolt pattern.

Perfect For:

• Replacement tires for fall/winter season towing
• Off-road trailers

Benefits of Silica in Tires

Although the use of Silica in tires has been around since the 1990's, very few understand the reasoning behind the addition and what makes Silica unique. In general, the addition of Silica into tires accomplishes two things that were thought to be antithetical to each other in the tire world- increasing grip/traction while at the same time increasing fuel efficiency. Here is a breakdown of the benefits of having Silica infused tires:

1. Improved traction in wet and wintery conditions: The addition of Silica into the rubber compound of a tire allows the tire to maintain greater flexibility at lower temperatures. By allowing the tire to maintain it's flexibility it is better able to conform to the underlying road surface which translates to better grip and traction.
2. Increased fuel efficiency: One of the main losses of energy from a tire is when a tire "rebounds" from deformation. Silica makes tires slightly softer which means they are able to rebound to their original shape with a lot less energy. This translates into decreases rolling resistance which means your tires require less energy to maintain their speed. By reducing rolling resistance, you significantly increase your fuel efficiency.
   
3. Decreased tire wear: The addition of silica into a tire increases the tire's abrasion resistance. This makes the tire more resilient to the abrasive power of road surfaces, extending the tread life.
