Hi-Run WD1065 480-8 4 Ply Solar Trailer Tire

Hi-Run WD1065 480-8 Trailer Tire

This Hi-Run WD1065 is a 4-ply trailer tire built for single-axle utility, boat or light cargo trailers. It carries a 590 lb load rating at 60 psi maximum pressure and measures 16.1 inches in outside diameter. The DOT-approved rubber construction uses tread pattern SU01 with 6 in tread depth. It suits owners who need a replacement tire in the 480-8 size for occasional highway or local towing.

Upgrade from worn or lower-ply trailer tires

Replacing cracked, flat-spotted or 2-ply tires with this 4-ply model restores the rated 590 lb capacity and firm sidewall response. The jump is worth it when the existing set shows sidewall weathering, uneven wear or pressure loss that cannot be corrected by inflation alone. Buyers who need a higher load range than 590 lb or a different rim diameter should select a tire matched to those specifications.

Sustained load behaviour on the road

At the rated 590 lb and 60 psi the tire maintains its 16.1 in diameter and tread contact patch over long distances without the excessive flex seen in under-inflated or overloaded units. The 4-ply carcass resists heat buildup during continuous highway speeds better than lighter constructions, while the SU01 tread evacuates water to reduce hydroplane risk. The 6 lb unit weight adds minimal unsprung mass to the trailer suspension.
