5.30 x 12 should also work. <br /><br />But only you can answer the question about fender clearance.

Re: size of trailer tires

You're Only Limited by the 4 on 4" bolt pattern......<br />You Could possibly find 13", 14", or 15" rims.....<br />Check the Older Ford mid-sized car, bolt patterns......<br />Trailers only use 3 different bolt patterns.....<br />4 on 4"s.....<br />5 on 4 1/2"s.....<br />And the 6 bolt pattern....<br />After these, you're into the Very Heavy Duty Trailers...... 8 bolt, 10 bolt,+ Dayton Style Wheels.....
