Expert Reply:
To pick out a new wheel and tire for your trailer you will need to know a couple pieces of information. First you will need to know the bolt pattern of your current rims so that you can find a wheel that will bolt right up to your trailer. I attached a help article that details how to find this info.
Next you will need the tire size. That should be stamped on the sidewall of the tire.
With those two pieces of information you can email me back and I will help you figure out what you would need, or you can check out the link I attached that shows all of the wheels and tires we carry. You will need to select your bolt pattern and tire size from the filters to see what we have available.
