I was wondering what size tires can I fit on these trailer?

They originally have 175/70/13 but I was wondering if I could get away with a bigger set such as the 205/70/15. I cant find any specs on these trailer. Thanks

Re: 1993 Stratos 256v trailer tires

Without more information, I doubt you'll get many replies. Pictures would help! How much clearance do the trailer tires have currently with the fenders at top and sides? How close are they to the frame of the trailer (although by choosing correct offset wheels you can control this, but then the tires move with respect to the fenders). I know on my trailer, I couldn't have gotten away with a 2" increase in tire size, they would have been rubbing the fenders. Also, what are you trying to accomplish? If you're trying to raise the back end of the trailer, you can often flip the axles under the springs, or buy a hitch connector with a different offset. If you want more load capacity, you can often find tires with a higher load rating... so give us some more info. Pictures are a GREAT help!!

That's a fairly substantial increase in size. Clearance may well be a problem.

I would like to see a pic as well. I have a 250V and love it. Why are you wanting bigger tires? Just get better quality radials.
