Expert Reply:
You'd have to go with a next larger trailer tire size of 205/65-10 to get at least a capacity of 1,500 lb per tire.
For that we have the part # AM3H480 for if you need a 5 lug bolt pattern or # AM3H460 for if you have a 4 lug bolt pattern. The overall size of this will be 8.4 inches wide and 20.4 inches in diameter. This will be noticeable larger than what you have so you'll want to measure first for clearance.
