should-- but better off to check--- also look in the fenderwell see how much space there is--- some trailers have more space in front of and behind the tire(that is from the front of the trailer to towards the rear)--- some trailers only have maybe a inch others more---ya dont want the tire rubbing on the fenderwells--- if you get say a 225/75r/15 tire and replace it with a 225/75r/16 tire you only pick up about a 1/2 inch on the radius but if you put on say a 245/75r/16 tire ya might pick up as much as a inch so clearance is critical also check the width of the fenderwell too---trailer wheels usually are centered that means 0" back spacing or off set from the center of the wheel
