Hey Andy, thanks for reaching out!
I believe your 2011 Coachmen Chaparral Lite comes with a wheel that has a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern on a 15" wheel, so the smaller tire size you can get for that is 205/75-15 and I recommend the Provider ST205/75R15 Trailer Tire with White Mod Wheel # TA27VR.
The tire has a 27.17" overall diameter so the center of your axle will be 13.59" above the ground. You can measure to the center of your axle right now and compare this to what you have to see what the difference will be.
It's also important to note that this combo has a 2,150 lbs at 65 psi weight rating. Will the size and this weight rating work out for you? If not, just let me know and I'll be more than happy to help you find something else!

Hey Andy, did the 205/75-15 tire and wheel combo give you the clearance you needed for storage? Knowing how much height you were able to reduce could help others trying to fit their trailers in tight spaces.
