From what I can find online, it looks like there were three options for the Lo-Liner. One option was the 13 foot version weighing 1300 lbs, a 15 foot option weighing 1800 lbs, and then a 17 foot option weighing 2,550 lbs.

From what I can find these came with 12 inch wheels with a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern. For replacement wheels, I recommend the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel - 4 on 4 - LR D # AM35351DX. These have automotive grade sipes for better traction in wet conditions. They are rated for speeds of up to 65 mph and loads up to 2440 per axle.

If you have the 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern then the Loadstar ST175/80D13 Bias Trailer Tire with 13" Black Wheel with +.5 Offset - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR D # AM31241 may be your choice because this larger wheel allows for the old style caps. Those caps are the Americana Baby Moon Trailer Wheel Center Cap - Chrome-Plated Steel - Qty 1 # AM90086.
