    2012 karavan dual axle trailer for a my 210

    Went with Carlisle HD radials when replaced my tires - came in the same odd 185/80/13 size and the "HD" version had comparable load rating for the radial (otherwise seem to run lower). They look larger radius / less clearance in fenders, would have a real good look if want to increase overall...
