Replacement Trailer Tires to Replace 215/70-15 Tires on Camper  

Published 01/12/2015



Question:

I am having difficulty finding new 215 70 15 camper tires. Are they available? If not, what can i substitute using same rims?

Expert Reply:

The size you listed isn't a standard trailer tire size so it makes me think that they are passenger vehicle tires which shouldn't ever be on a trailer. For a tire with a very close size that is rated for use on trailers I would recommend the # AM10245.

I attached a review video and an FAQ article on trailer tires for you to check out as well.
