Are Trailer Tire Sizes ST205/75-14 and 4.80-12 Close in Size
Question:
Are trailer tires st20575r14 comparable to buying 480-12 4.80-12 12 LRB 5 Hole? My current trailer has the st205 but I need new ones and thought about buying 4.80 if they would work just as well?

Those two tire size are pretty different as the ST205/75-14 has a diameter of 26.3 inches and the tire size of 4.80-12 is 20.5 inches tall. They are also going to have a much lower weight capacity so your best option is sticking with your current size like # AM32156.
