Expert Reply:
The LT215/75R15 tires are 27.7 inches diameter and 8.5 inches wide. The tire options you have are going slightly bigger or slightly smaller. For instance the Provider ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # TTWTRTM2257515D is 28.31 inches diameter and 8.78 inches wide. It is rated for 2,540 lbs at 65 psi and has a speed rating of 81 mph. That same tire in the smaller size is the Provider ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # TR20515D which is 7.99 inches wide and 27.17 inches outer diameter. It is rated for 2,150 lbs at 65 psi and has the same 81 mph speed rating.
If you have the room for the larger tires, that is my recommendation for your 16 foot car trailer.
