Expert Reply:

As long as you aren't going over the capacity you can use the Karrier ST215/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire # AM32181 as a spare. The weight of your trailer will be divided between your tires. This has a max load of 1,870 lbs at 50 psi. For example, if you had a GVWR of 7,000 lbs between 4 tires that would be 1,750 lbs per tire which would mean this is ok to use.

We only offer the wheel and tire separately for a load range D tire. If the capacity of the Karrier isn't enough, you could use the Provider # TTWTRTM2157514D along with the Dexstar # AM20352. You would need to mount the tire yourself or take it somewhere to do it for you.
