I need one wheel and two tires if can match them up or if I can't, I need five tires. Currently running 5 on 5 BP 15" white spokes with 215/75/R15 tires. Any suggestions on where to go for replacements?

Tire Rack? FWIW, I've had good success with my Goodyear Marathons.

You can get wheels with tires mounted at TSC.

If you like to take it in the ass without lube. They are over priced for what they are IMO. Although I havent priced out rims as I had a set.

I ordered some online but I cant seem to find where and sadly dont remember what kind of tires. I just bought 4 though to replace the wore out ones on my trailer. I'll check tonight if you want. They have held up great for all the sitting they do seeing how the trailer rarely gets used. :lol:

Edit: They are Greenball Towmasters. I havent had any issues with them but it seems to be hit or miss if you google them. The price was right at the time and they've held up so no complaints from me.

I got my last set of tires at Rice Tire in Frederick...The price was fair.

Granted, the only reason I went there is because I got a flat tire with no spare at their exit off of I-70 :lol: I didn't even have to unload or disconnect the trailer, and they even mounted up one of the old tires for a spare.

I like that place a lot, just check the torque on your lugs if they work on anything. :)

I got towmaster trailer radials at Barnes $82 each no balance. Tow much better than my old bais.

Thank you to all for your replies.

Thanks.

What is "not a very good deal"?

I'm looking for a spare tire/wheel combo for my new to me car hauler. Local trailer place here charges $149.

I think I paid $200 for two tires, one wheel, mounting and balancing on both and five lugnuts.

yea, that seems high. I paid ~250 for four tires, mounted and balanced.

Not 5 on 5.I went there and they couldn't even order a 5 on 5 rim.

I deal with Dave's Boat Trailer Sales in Glen Burnie. Have had everything trailer related I could think of, with tons more stuff on the shelves. Were real good in helping me the last time I went up there not knowing what I really needed.

Might be a little far for you, though.

I second Daves...

I bught a new set of wheels and tires from them when I got tired of the white wheels flaking and rusting.. I got new galvanized wheels and larger tires for a good price. Very far and friendly. They did not have the wheels and tires I wanted, already mounted, but mounted a set while I waited. Very unexpected.. They also have anything you will need for your trailer, instock and on the shelves... Very handy...
