Can 16 inch Wheel with 6 on 5-1/2 inch Bolt Pattern with 15 inch Diameter

Question:

I have a United double axle enclosed car hauler. It has a 6 bolt 15” rim and tire. Can I put a 6 bolt 16” rim and tire. My question would be if both are 6 bolt is it safe to assume the 16” rim and tire would work to replace the 15”? I’m buying used rims on line.

Yes, a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern wheel with a 16 inch diameter would easily replace a 15 inch diameter wheel with the same bolt pattern. For example the # TTWTRTM2358016E tire would go great with your rims.
