Thanks for reaching out, Joseph!

To replace your 15" wheel you need the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel # DEX49FR which is a 15" x 6" rim (6" is standard width for this size) and a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern you're looking for.

@JosephW Happy to help! I have some tires to match the size you have, but we unfortunately don't have that specific wheel mounted to any tires so you'll have to purchase them separately and have a tire shop mount them for you. In addition to the Black 15" Wheel # DEX49FR I recommend picking up the Kenda Karrier. You'll just need to match the load range to what you currently have for best performance: - Load Range C # AM10251 - Load Range D # AM10256 - Load Range E # AM10303 The current pricing for these parts can be found directly on their pages.

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…
