Size Tire to Fit Trailer Rim that is 15 inch In Diameter and 5 inches Wide
Question:
Would I be taking a chance by using rim size 15 x 5 Spoke Style 5 Lug On 4.5for ST 225/75R15 tires or should I move to a 6inch width?

With the tire size of ST225/75R15 the smallest width rim available that will work with that size is 6 inches. If you have a 5 inch wide rim you would have to go with the tire size 205/75-15 like the part # TR20515D which would fit and work well. This tire also has an 81 mph speed rating which is much higher than most trailers which only have a 65 mph speed rating.
