Expert Reply:
Are you sure about the 205/75-13 tire size you mentioned? That doesn't show up as a valid tire size.
If you needed a 13 inch rim which works with a 175/80-13 or a 185/80-13 tire, I'd recommend the # AM20234 galvanized 13 x 4-1/2 inch rim. For something that looks a little nicer, an aluminum wheel would be a good choice that would also provide the corrosion resistance you're looking for. For a simple aluminum rim, I'd recommend the 13 x 5 inch HWT # AM22323HWT. Both rims have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
I've linked to product videos for the wheels I recommended.
