Trailer Wheel and Tire that is Narrower than 215/60-8

Question:
I just replaced my trailer axle and the new one does not have a brake flange. Because of this my existing tire/wheel combination 215/60-8 it too wide. What size tire/wheel combination can I use as a replacement? The bolt pattern is 5 - 4.5 in.

Expert Reply:
The size 165/65-8 is a bit narrower than the size 215/60-8 so for a wheel and tire that has a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inches we have the # AM3H240. This will give you a tire setup that's right at 3.15 inches narrower than what you have.
