Your 8-14.5 tires are a specialty size which we do not carry. Our only options are going to be to switch to a larger 16" diameter wheel and tire package which is going to be wider and taller than your current tires. Your tires are roughly 8.1" wide with a overall diameter of 27.8". Going to a wheel and tire like the Kenda Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire with 16" Black Mod Wheel # AM32743B is going to be 9.37" wide and 31.625" in diameter. If you do not have the additional clearance required you will need to source the same size tires which you currently have or make modifications to your particular trailer to fit the larger size.

If you need help determining what all is required please send me some information and images of your trailer and suspension system.
