Hey Harold, thanks for reaching out!

You can definitely swap out to 225/75R15 tires as long as they are rated high enough to handle the weight of your 2020 Geo Pro.

According to my research your Geo Pro has a GVWR just under 4,000 lbs so the 225/75R15 Goodyear Endurance tire will work out great. We only carry this tire with the Silver Modular Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2 as Kit # LH33FR, but I'm pretty sure your trailer uses a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern so the wheel won't work.

If you'd like to get a similar tire from us then I recommend picking up the Provider ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # TR225LRE, but if you want to stick with the Goodyear brand (which is really good as well!) then you'll unfortunately need to get it elsewhere. We used to carry all of the Goodyear tires, but for whatever reason we stopped carrying them, so we just have residual stock left.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

We don't want to swap out the entire wheel (keeping the rims). I've read that there is a psi rating for the rim itself. If we go from a D to an E tire, will that be over the psi rating of the rim? What is the psi rating of the Geo pro's wheel rim. Also, does switching to an E rated tire require us to swap out the rubber valve stem for a metal one considering the increase in psi?

@Terri One of the guys here at etrailer worked in the tire and wheel industry for a LONG time and he said the trailer wheels will be able to withstand the psi rating of any tire that fits it unless it has a specific rating listed. I don't see a listing for your wheel so you really just need to check your valve stem. If your valve stem is mostly metal, like part # AM20904, then it can handle up to the 80 psi just fine, but if it's mostly rubber then you'll need to swap them out to the one I mentioned above.
