The Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Black Mod Wheel part # AM32238B has a bolt pattern of 5 on 4.5". Check out the link I've added to see how to measure the current hubs and see if they're a match.

If that passes inspection then you need to have the right clearance for them. The overall diameter of the tire is 27.13" so from the center of your hub to the fender you want to have about 16.5" of clearance to have some wiggle room.

The width is right at 8" so from your hub face to the closest part of the trailer should be about 5.5-6" again to give a little extra room.

If this works out great. If not let me know what you came up with and I can try to help find something that will fit your needs.
