I recently switched to 10 ply truck tires after having blow outs with 10 ply trailer tires.

The trailer pulls so much better now.
I had to go to 16 inch wheels to use the LT225-75-16 Truck tires.

LT truck tires are the way to go, IMO.

Anyways, my trailer uses 5 lug 4 1/2" bolt pattern.
I was amazed to only find one wheel company that made a 16 inch- 5 lug 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern wheel in steel.
