I would recommend the Kenda 165/65-8 Trailer Tire with 8-inch Galvanized Wheel # AM3H240. This tire has a five lug capacity with a 4-1/2 inch diameter. This is a 5- on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. I have included a link to a help article on determining the bolt pattern of a wheel. The pilot diameter is 2.8 inches.

The tire is a load range C tire with a ply rating of 6 and an 800 pound maximum load at 70 psi.
