The closest metric trailer tire size to a 4.80x12 is going to be a 145/80-12. The two tires we have in that size are # AM10140 and # AM10130. These tires fit 12" x 4" wheels.
# AM10130 has a maximum load capacity 1,220 lbs at 65 psi
# AM10140 has a maximum load capacity of 1,520 lbs at 80 psi.
I have included demonstration videos of these tires for you to check out.
