We do not have any aluminum spare tire carriers so unfortunately nothing that can be welded to your aluminum trailer. The best option is to use a bolt on option that is either galvanized like # CE27310G or is zinc coated like # DL22120 or # FSTC1000301 to avoid galvanic corrosion from the dissimilar metals.

Answer 7

We have an aluminum 7 spoke 14 inch trailer wheel that looks pretty close to the wheel in the picture you sent us, but it's not an exact match. For that wheel you would want the part #AM22329. For a 205/75R14 you can use #AM10234 or tire #AM10229…

I can end this debate for you real fast! Trailer tires, which will have an ST in front of the size, should always be inflated to the maximum psi indicated on the tire. Trailer tires usually do not have a recommended and maximum psi indication so I am…
