275144 - Miller Trailer Tire and Rim Assembly ST175/80D13

Keep Your Mobile Welding Rig Rolling

For professional welders who rely on engine-driven generators to work on-site, mobility is the backbone of the business. The Miller 275144 Tire with Rim (ST175/80D13) is the factory-correct replacement wheel assembly for various Miller welding trailers. Whether you are hauling a Trailblazer to a construction site or a Big Blue to a pipeline job, the condition of your trailer tires dictates whether you arrive on time or end up stranded on the roadside. This product is a complete assembly, meaning you receive a fresh tire professionally mounted on a new steel rim, ready to bolt onto your trailer hub.

Heavy-Duty Trailer Construction

Welding generators are dense, heavy machines that place significant stress on trailer tires. This Miller replacement tire features an "ST" (Special Trailer) rating, which is the industry standard for towing applications. Unlike passenger car tires, ST tires are built with stronger sidewalls and materials designed to resist the lateral forces experienced during towing. The "D" in the size specification (ST175/80D13) stands for bias-ply construction. Bias-ply tires are renowned for their tough sidewalls and ability to carry heavy loads over rough terrain, making them an excellent choice for industrial environments where trailers might be pulled over gravel, dirt, or uneven job sites.

Convenience and Reliability

One of the biggest advantages of purchasing the Miller 275144 as a complete assembly is the convenience. Dealing with tire shops to mount a small trailer tire can be a hassle, and often, the old rims are rusted, bent, or have damaged valve stem holes. By replacing the entire wheel assembly, you ensure that the rim is perfectly true and the valve stem is new, reducing the risk of slow leaks. This "plug-and-play" solution allows you to swap out a damaged or worn wheel in minutes using standard hand tools and a jack, getting you back on the road and back to work faster.

Investment in Equipment Safety

Your welding machine is a significant investment, and the trailer is its primary protection during transport. Worn-out tires can lead to excessive vibration, poor handling, and increased risk of accidents. Investing in OEM replacement tires like the Miller 275144 ensures that your trailer handles predictably and safely. We recommend checking your trailer's owner's manual or parts list to confirm this specific tire size matches your current setup. Keeping a spare assembly on hand is also a proactive strategy for mobile welders who travel long distances to remote locations.
