Can 14 Inch Tires and Wheels be Changed to 15 Inch Tires and Wheels
Question:
Can I swap out my current 14 inch tires and wheels to new 15 inch on a tandem EZ Loader trailer?

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can switch from a 14-inch tire and wheel combo to a 15-inch tire and wheel combo, so long as your new wheel has the same bolt pattern, and you have the space to fit the larger wheel and tire.
For example, if you had the Provider ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 14" Wheel # TA82MR, which has a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and measures 26.1" in total diameter and 8" wide, you could switch to the Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 15" Silver Mod Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 # AM32418DX because it has the same 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern.
This tire and wheel combo is 27.3" in diameter and 8.1" wide so you would only need to ensure you had the recommended minimum of 1" of clearance between the trailer frame and inside of the tire and 3" between the trailer fender and the top of the tire.
I have added a link below to a help article on how to determine bolt pattern for you to take a look at as well as a link to our entire selection of 15 inch wheel and tire combos.
