You can see our range of 6-lug aluminum trailer wheels with ST225/75R15 tires by clicking on the linked page.

We offer both pre-mounted radial and bias ply type tires in your size. You can simply click on the preferred type to narrow the products shown to those with radial or bias tires. We also have two available load ranges in this size, Load Range D and Load Range E. It is always a good idea to have some safety margin in your trailer setup so choose tires that offer more weight capacity than you actually need.

For a radial option the Westlake Liger # LH36FR offers a Load range E tire good for 2,830-lbs maximum load at 80 psi. This tire is rated for speeds up to 75-mph and it includes complimentary roadside assistance for 2 years, so if you were to get a flat anywhere in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico a tech would come at no charge and change the tire for you.

Special trailer tires should always be fully inflated to the maximum psi pressure that is indicated on the tire sidewall. It is never appropriate to under- or over-inflate a trailer tire for any reason. Trailer tires can deliver their rated speed and weight carrying performance only when inflated to their required cold tire pressure.
