A tire that is size 205/75-15 will fit on a 15 x 6 inch wheel. however, you should not use trailer tires and wheels on a passenger vehicle nor should you use passenger vehicle tires and wheels on a trailer. Trailer tires and wheels are specially designed to handle more vertical load. Passenger vehicle tires and wheels are not.

If you need a trailer tire and wheel combo we carry several options in 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern, 5 on 4-3/4 inch bolt pattern, and 5 on 5 inch bolt pattern. I have included a link to our tiring sizing FAQ for you.
