We do have the Dexter Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20443 available by itself but it is not currently available with an ST205/75D15 tire pre-mounted. For a ST205/75D15 tire the Kenda Loadstar Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST92 will work great and fit the Dexter wheel perfectly. It features a maximum load of 1,820 pounds at 50 psi and an excellent speed rating of 81 mph.

Since it sounds like you are replacing the tires anyway I recommend considering an upgrade to radial tires instead of the bias units you currently have. Radial tires feature cords that run at a 90 degree angle in the direction of travel (instead of at a 32 degree angle on bias tires) that allow it to flex more for better ground contact and stability. A radial tire will also normally run cooler than a bias alternative.

For a radial ply tire the Provider # TTWTRTM2057515C will work perfectly with the above Dexter wheel and it features the same maximum load and speed rating as the Kenda bias tire.

I have attached a couple short video demonstrations on these tires that you can also check out.
