I have a trailer with 15inch tires. I would like to replace with 14inch tires. Do I have to replace the hubs?

Helpful Expert Reply:

To go from a 15 inch trailer wheel to a 14 inch trailer wheel would only require you to match up the bolt pattern of what you currently have with what you would like to install.

You will first need to determine what bolt pattern you have on your wheel. I attached a link to a help article that details how to do this.

In the 14 inch trailer wheel size we have only the 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. This is a very common bolt pattern though.

You have the choice of a 215/75-14 like part # AM32181 or the 205/75-14 like part # TA82MR.
