It sounds you are looking for a new trailer wheel for your 4.80-12 trailer tires. Your 13 inch is like just a 12 inch wheel, but you may be measuring the overall diameter. Trailer wheel diameter is actually measured from bead seat to bead seat rather than overall, so a 12 inch diameter wheel may look more like a 13 inch diameter wheel. I'm guessing your wheel bolt pattern is actually 5 on 4-1/2 because 5 on 4.25 is not a common trailer wheel bolt pattern. I've attached a help article on how to determine your wheel bolt pattern that you may find helpful.

We have several wheels that will fit your 4.80-12 trailer tires like the 12" Dexstar Steel Spoke Wheel, # AM20132. This wheel has a wheel bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inches and a center bore diameter of 3.19" which is the common center bore diameter for this size wheel. As long as you have a bit of a gap between the center bore of your current wheels and your trailer hub, this wheel will work perfectly for you.

We also offer a Silver Modular style wheel, # TA79RR, or a black version as part # AM20153.
