It's hard to say exactly when the last H78-15ST tire was made, but it has definitely been a while. Long enough that if you found some I would not recommend you use them on your trailer.

For a modern tire size equivalent you would want the 225/75-15 like the # AM10303. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

A 16 x 6 trailer wheel like #AM20766 can accept the trailer tire sizes 235/80-16, 235/85-16 and 7.50-16LT which we offer. But a wider 245 tire (9.6-inches wide) needs a rim that is 6-1/2 to 8-inches wide such as 16 x 7 wheel #LHJM513.

In an emergency, provided that the bolt pattern of the smaller wheel is the same as the larger wheel and as long as the hubs accept the smaller wheel you should be able to bolt it on. But you also have to consider capacity since a 13 inch is going to…
