Typically trailer tires will fail due to heat build up more than anything. This is caused by excessive speed, exceeding towing capacity, or improper inflation.
Best option we have that matches the size and bolt pattern you need is the ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 15" Wheel # LHAW320 which has a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern wheel and a tire size of 205/75R15. This has a capacity of 1,820 lbs at 50 psi which means you need to keep it inflated to 50 psi and has a speed rating of 81 MPH.
