First let's determine what tire size you have on your trailer already. Since that size works well I would recommend trying to as closely match that size. In order to pick out the correct tire size to replace what you currently have you are going to need to know what size tire is on your trailer. There will be a size stamped on the side of the tire, if you check out the picture I attached you will see what it should look like.
Once you know the size of your trailer tires check out the FAQ article I attached to the right that will have all of the trailer tire sizes we offer. You will need to select your tire size from that chart and all of the tires we offer that will fit your wheel will be listed.
I also attached a couple FAQ articles on trailer tires that you should find informative also.
