Can Trailer Tire Size of ST205/75-14 be Upgraded Without Changing Wheel

Question:

Hello, I currently have a 14 inch tire on a 2012 Salem Forest River, with a tire dimension of ST205/75D14/C and would like to go to a 15 inch tire. Can I change the tire size or do I need a new rim, with tire? What would be my next size up and option please? Thanks,

There is a larger 14 inch trailer tire size that will fit your current wheels which will prevent you from having to buy new wheels too. The next size up would be 215/75-14 and is .4 of an inch taller than what you have.

For just a tire in that size the best option is a Taskmaster Provider ST215/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C
Item # TTWTR21514 which has an 81 mph speed rating.
