All of the jack wheels we have are for round tube jacks but there is an alternative to moving around a trailer other than a wheeled jack. You could use a trailer dolly such as # RA20. It is rated for 500 pounds tongue weight and since your trailer is 2,500 pounds at most the tongue weight would be around 250 pounds. There isn't a gross trailer weight capacity because it just depends on how much weight the user can pull or push around.

Another option that will assist in moving the trailer is a different kind of dolly; the Trailer Valet XL, # TVXL2 for a 2 inch ball or # TVXL25 for a 2-5/16 inch ball. These each have 2 speeds and if you don't want to manually crank the wheels you can use the included drill attachment and use a power drill to make things go much faster. I have linked some videos on both types of dollies for you.
