Best Radial Trailer Tire in Size of 175/80R13

Question:

HI, I have two boat trailer tires that need replacing. I have seen all your helpful articles regarding replacement ones. The current ones are a B78 which are super old, we just aquired the boat over the past 6 months and am updating it. Anyway, I would like a galvanized or aluminum rim and tire combo, I dont think there is much room for a 14 inch upgrade without fender modification, so I would have to stick with the 175/80 r 13. I would like a radial tire, its a single axle and I have a 5 spoke rim. Please advise to the better or best rated tire you have. I believe the current is a load star. Some of the rims listed require a different lug too. Please advise, thanks,
