    15 inch spare to replace 14 inch??

    I have 14-inch wheels on boat - need a spare and have an opportunity to get a free one but it is 15-inch. For short term use situations - would that be a problem? (assuming fender clearance). Would that cause vehicle wander or similar?

    Trailer surge brakes loud banging noises when soft braking
