If your Shorelandr boat trailer has a 5 lug wheel, it'll have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern but if you wish you can measure it. This is really simple to do, just measure the distance between two adjacent wheel studs, center to center. If the distance is 2-5/8 inches, then you've confirmed it's a 5 on 4-1/2.

The # AM30820 wheel/tire combo you referred to is a 5.30-12 bias ply Load Range C tire on a white spoked 12 x 4 inch wheel. It'd make an okay choice for a spare but for marine use I'd recommend the same tire on a galvanized wheel like part # AM30850.

I've linked to a product description video for the wheel/tire I recommended as well as to a help article that explains how to measure a wheel bolt pattern.
