In order to choose a compatible tire and wheel combo for your trailer, you will first need to determine your existing bolt pattern. If you do not have this information, I have attached a helpful article that explains how to measure for this.
If you have a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern, I recommend the Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12 Inch White Wheel # AM30780. This is a great tire and wheel combo that has a maximum load of 1,045 pounds at 80 psi and a speed rating of 65 mph. It also comes with a nice 5-year limited warranty the tire and 1 year on the wheel. I have attached a video demonstration on this product so you can see exactly how it looks.
You will just need to make sure that the combined load capacity for these tires is sufficient for the loaded weight of your trailer. To extend the life of trailer tires, you should also make sure that they are always inflated to their maximum psi as listed. I have attached a couple additional articles on trailer tires that you might also find helpful.
