The exact information you are looking for I don't have, but I can help you figure out how to get a replacement rim that would work.

All we need is two key pieces of information. The bolt pattern and the diameter of the rim. To determine the bolt pattern of the rim check out the FAQ article I attached to the right.

To determine the diameter of the wheel the easiest way is to look at the tire size that is stamped on the sidewall of the trailer. The last two numbers will be the diameter of the rim. For example, check out the picture I attached. The last two numbers are 15. This indicates that the rim diameter would be 15 inches.

Once you know what you have check out the link I attached that shows all of the trailer rims we carry. Feel free to email me back once you find that info as well and I will help you pick out a rim.
