You'll want to make sure that all the tires on a trailer are the same size, load rating and construction (bias ply versus radial).

If you're wanting to match an existing tire, I'd be happy to make a recommendation if you can reply with the exact tire size and load rating and whether the tire is a bias ply or a radial. This information can be found on the tire's sidewall.

I'll link to our series of trailer wheel and tire articles which I hope you'll find informative.
