Americana Tire & Wheel

About Americana Tire & Wheel

Americana Tire & Wheel has spent more than 50 years earning a reputation as one of the most trusted names in trailer tires, wheels, and assemblies. Now operating as a division of the Kenda Rubber Industrial Company, the brand brings together decades of hands-on engineering, chemistry, and manufacturing expertise to deliver products that keep trailers rolling safely across North American roads and terrain.

What sets Americana apart is the depth of the team behind every product. Americana Tire & Wheel draws on a worldwide family of companies employing more than 12,000 professionals — engineers, chemists, and skilled assemblers — all working to ensure that each tire, wheel, and assembly meets rigorous performance standards before it ever leaves the facility. With multiple assembly and warehousing locations spread across the United States, the brand is well-positioned to serve both individual trailer owners and major trailer manufacturers throughout North America.

Trailer Tires Built for the Long Haul

At the core of the Americana lineup are its trailer tires, offered under the well-known Loadstar® and Karrier® brand names. These tires are engineered specifically for the unique demands of trailer applications — from marine and boat trailers to RV towables and utility haulers — where consistent load capacity, heat resistance, and long tread life are non-negotiable. Both bias-ply and radial options are available to suit a wide range of trailer types and load requirements.

Steel and Aluminum Wheels for Every Application

Americana’s wheel lineup spans both aluminum and steel construction across a broad range of sizes, bolt patterns, and finishes. The Dexstar® line of steel wheels is engineered to handle heavy loads with confidence, while the aluminum wheel range delivers a lightweight yet durable option for owners who want a balance of performance and aesthetics. Whether you’re outfitting an RV, a marine trailer, or a heavy-duty utility trailer, the wheels are available in galvanized, powder-coated, chrome, and polished finishes to match your needs.

Pre-Mounted Assemblies: Ready to Roll

One of Americana’s most convenient offerings is its selection of pre-mounted wheel and tire assemblies and mounted tire & wheel assemblies. Rather than sourcing tires and wheels separately and dealing with balancing on your own, Americana’s expert technicians mount and balance the combination in-house using modern high-speed equipment, with careful quality checks at every stage. This saves installation time and gives trailer owners confidence that the assembly is ready for the road the moment it arrives. Hundreds of combinations are available, pairing various tire sizes with steel or aluminum wheel designs across a wide range of diameters.

Trusted Across Industries

From marine anglers trailering their boats to the water, to RV enthusiasts logging thousands of miles on the highway, Americana Tire & Wheel products are built to perform in real-world conditions. Their broad product range, U.S.-based assembly operations, and backing by the global Kenda family of companies make them a go-to source for trailer owners and OEM manufacturers alike.
