Question:
I have a 1990 palomino hardside mxl With 20.5X8.0-10 4lug wheels is there any upgrade wheel and tire size?

In regards to upgrading, which for most means going with a larger wheel/tire combo, this is possible but you will be limited by the bolt pattern of the hubs. The 4 on 4" bolt pattern will allow for wheel sizes from 8-13". The best size comes down to available space which is not really something I can give a recommendation on for any one particular trailer.
That said, if you have room, the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire part # AM35351DX would be a great option. It measures 21.3" diameter x 5.7" wide so you need to make sure you have this much space or this much space can be made to fit the new size.
