Hey Robert, the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel # AM35351DX would be a great option. This has a 1,220 lb per wheel/tire capacity so with two you'd have nearly twice the needed capacity, the tire has an 81 mph speed rating, and it has the 4 lug bolt pattern you need as well. Can your Goldwing do a wheelie??
