Recommended 15 Inch Replacement Tires for Camping Trailer

It is not recommended to use different size, styles, or load capacity tires on a trailer. The differences can cause different wear patterns, but more importantly can cause different friction causing tires to heat up differently. Overheating is the biggest cause of trailer tire failure.
My recommendation is to use the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL304 for your replacement tires. These tires are rated for 2,830 lbs at 80 psi and speeds up to 75 mph. They come with a 5 year warranty and 2 years complimentary roadside assistance 24/7.
If you want a higher speed rating of up to 81 mph with the same load capacity, I recommend the Taskmaster Provider ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # TR225LRE.
If you prefer the ST205/75R15 size, then I recommend the Taskmaster Provider ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # TR20515D or the Lionshead Westlake # LHWL300. These have slightly lower capacities at 2150 lbs at 65 mph but have the same speed ratings and warranties.
