There are several different wheel stud sizes available but nearly all trailer wheels use 1/2 inch studs and a 60 degree taper which the lock kit part # RG01-150 would work well with. Especially on a 5 lug hub I can almost guarantee this is what you'd want. The hubs with more than 5 lugs can sometimes have 9/16 inch studs but you'd have 1/2 like what this would need.

I think the Redline Wheel Lock Set # RG01-150 that Jameson mentioned above is really nice. As long as you have 1/2" wheel bolts (which is very likely) they will work great. I linked a video demonstration below so you can see exactly how they work.

I have attached a chart you can check out that describes the torque needed per wheel size, wheel stud size and material. For an 8-inch wheel with a 1/2-inch wheel stud the torque is 75 to 86 ft-lbs. For a 15 inch steel wheel with 1/2 inch wheel studs…

There is no way for us to look up what lug nuts your trailer has, but if you take one of the lugs from your trailer to an auto parts store they should be able to determine what you have and what would work as a replacement lug.
