[tabtrailers] Re: Comparable Replacement for the OEM Tires

 

The important thing is the outside diameter, it has to be the same as or very close to the original (clearance for fenders and wheel wells)
Replace with the same size as is already on your trailer, or the same that is already on your spare.

My recomendation for the low profile car tires 'GET THE HIGHEST SPEED RATING YOU CAN FIND' for whatever brand you choose. . .

If you are wanting to change to the 13" steel wheels with trailer tires, make sure your overall diameter matches the original. Be sure the wheel mates to the brake drum properly and the lug bolts fit properly.

Personally I like the 16" alloy wheels and the low profile tires. . .
