tire size on my trailer

[Bill Wilson]

I have a 1962 Starcraft Jupiter that came with a tilt trailer.

Any chance anyone would know the name/manufacturer of the trailer? Also the tire/rim size that would probably be on it.

I don't have either the boat or trailer at home, and I am trying to figure out what these might be.

Thanks for your help.
Bill

The trailer could be any brand.

The tires/rims will either be: 8", 12", 13" or 14". I doubt they are 15".

Once you figure that out, you need to know the bolt pattern. Four lug or five. Even then, there a few variations of each. you really need to eyeball it.

Got a picture? If so, I'll bet we can get you in the ballpark.

tire size marked on side of tire, you also need the load range, with the bolt pattern, you can buy replacements. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/techpage.jsp?techid=92

Your hoping somebody here also has a 1962 starcraft Jupiter with a trailer and tires, but I don't think it works that way, trailers are random even though you may have the original setup. I'm going quess it would have 12" 4 bolt rims.

Even most so-called "custom" trailers don't amount to much more than color matched paint.
