The Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8 inch White Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 # AM30020 needs a 1/2 inch-20 lug nut like # LHLR103.

This lug nut is a coned 1/2 inch-20 lug nut and needs a torque of 90-100 ft.-lbs.

If your current springs have 5 leaves then going to a 7 leaf spring will increase the height of the trailer a little and make the trailer more susceptible to sway. Regarding capacity if you go with springs rated higher than what is required it will…

Seal 171255UC has an inner diameter of 1.719 inches and outer diameter of 2.565 inches. A seal that has those dimensions would actually be #58846. I've added a link to a video review of this seal for you to take a look at.
