Question:
I have an older boat trailer that I am converting. It has 6.00-12 tires with 4 lug and 4 inches between bolts and a 2 5/16inch center hole wheels. What alternatives do I have. Should I replace wheels and tires or would just tires be cheaper? Will a 5.30-12 tire work okay on my rims?

Expert Reply:
The closest tire size we have to what your trailer has is 145/80-12. It would probably be easier to just replace the wheels and tires at the same time.
The most popular option we have that comes with a tire mounted is the part # AM35351DX which has a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern and a center hole diameter of 2.84 inch.
Or for just the tire we have the part # AM10130 which may or not fit your wheel size.
