I did the same thing. Bought 16" 6 lug rims and used the same tires as on my truck. I did buy new tires. I have heard that the specifications for trailer tires are much looser than those for making truck tires. This makes the truck tires far superior. I switched to truck tires and I am on my 4th year with them and no problems. I couldn't go 2 years without a problem on 15" trailer tires.
