Expert Reply:

Since you have Dexter 3,500 lb axles you'd just need to replace the hubs with hub/drums that have a standard trailer wheel bolt pattern like with the part # 84546UC3 and you'd be able to fit basically any trailer wheel with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern like the part # AM32424.

For brake assemblies you'd also need the part # AKEBRK-35-SA and you'd be set.
