We do not carry the 7.00-15 tire size.

The other two 15 inch trailer tire sizes that I do have available are the ST205/75-15 size and the ST225/75-15 size. The ST205/75-15 size will have a width of 8 inches and a height of 27.3 inches. This tire will be about 1 inch wider and 1 inch shorter compared to your 7.00-15 size.

The ST225/75-15 size will be about 1-1/2 inches wider and about the same height (28.1 inches) as your 7.00-15 tire size, but it is designed for a minimum wheel width of 6 inches. The wheel width that the 7.00-15 size will usually be mounted on is 5-1/2 inches, so the ST225/75-15 size would not fit that wheel size.

I am including links to product pages on the ST205/75-15 and ST225/75-15 tires sizes that I have available.

If you are buying a tire and wheel together you will just need to make sure it will have the correct weight capacity and enough clearance to fit on your trailer.

I am including links to a couple of FAQ pages on trailer tires.
