Trailer Wheel and Tire for Trailer with Size ST205/75-15
Question:
The attached photo shows the tire/wheel specs for my trailer. Trailer is a 2008 Tandem axle #7,000 GVWR. It still has the Listed tire and wheel size installed. I am looking to purchase new tires and possibly wheels as well. Should I stick with Bias or change to Radial? And if I go to radial and purchase new wheels would a 15x5 rim work okay since the 6” is specified? It seems like the 15x6 are harder to find. I’m assuming this tire size is compatible with both wheel sizes.

Expert Reply:
I would definitely recommend going with a radial tire instead of the bias ply that your trailer originally came with. You'll end up with a smoother and more stable ride quality and the tires overall will last longer. Going to a 5 inch wide wheel would not be an issue either since that's the standard size.
My favorite wheel and tire to recommend in this size is the Provider part # TTWTRTM2057515C. This radial tire has an automotive type tread design to give you the best traction, a higher speed rating, and has a great warranty.
