Helpful Expert Reply:

The wheel for a 205/75-15 tire will actually be the same for a 225/75-15 as that last number "15" corresponds to the size of the wheel. If you're talking about the width of the wheel then I would go with the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL304 as it fits 15" x 5" and 15" x 6" wide wheels which are the 2 most commons widths.

If you'd rather just get new tires AND wheels so you know they all fit then I recommend the following depending on what size bolt pattern you have:

5 on 4-1/2" - # TA86MR
6 on 5-1/2" - # LH36FR
