I am not sure what your current wheels and tires are but I can give you some information so that you can relay to me what you have and we can find you some spares! You want to make sure that your spare tires are the same size as your current tires so that both sides of your trailer will wear the same way.
Start off by checking the sidewall of your current tires. This will have your tire size printed on it which you can see "ST205/75R15" in the attached photo example.
The only other thing that we need to confirm is the bolt pattern on your wheel. One of the most common bolt patterns is 5 on 4-1/2". You can determine your bolt pattern by measuring from one bolt hole either to the bolt hole across from it or to a point in the diameter directly across from it (see attached picture).
I have linked a helpful article that you can check out to help you determine your bolt pattern. Let me know what you find for tire sizing, bolt pattern, and what the weight capacity is of your axle(s) and I can help you find the best spare tires.
