Confident traction - thanks to deep tread pattern
Tread depth measures 4 mm and the pattern channels contact across the footprint to increase bite on both tarmac and light off-road surfaces.
Improved grip helps reduce wheel slip on grass, gravel and compacted tracks, making launches and hill starts steadier when towing.
Stable load carrying - with 4-ply construction supporting 265 kg
A 4-ply carcass strengthens the tyre walls and spreads load forces evenly across the tyre to resist deformation under weight.
Reliable hauling for small to medium loads up to the rated 265 kg, keeping trailer sides and suspension under less strain.
Flexible fitting options - with tubeless or inner-tube compatibility
Bead and central hole dimensions suit 8-inch rims (central hole diameter 200 mm), allowing mounting either tubeless or with an inner tube depending on rim type.
Makes fitting straightforward across common 8-inch trailer rims and allows choice between tubeless setups or traditional tube use.
