Sorry to have been confussing about tire replacmant for cobra
trailers.
In the past I have used a larger tire for my trailer rather than the
origional equipment tires from the trailer manufacturer. My purpose
was two fold. Increasing tire size from a P155/80R13 to a P185/80R13
will raise the clearance at axle location app. 3" The larger tire
gives me more clearance for the tail of the trailer. I would no longer
scrape the tail end when I would go over curbs, gas station entries,
exits etc. Secondly the width of the tire is also increased with the
change in tire size for a more stable ride. Bottom line is by
increasing tire size in a P Metric radial both height and width are
increased. In most cases two radials tires(I use Michelin) are "less
expensive" than two new rims and two new tires. 5 Ugly.

Check the current tire size. If you have P155/80R-13s or even
P165/80R13s now, you can raise the height by going to a P185/80R13 by
close to 3 inches. The tires will be much cheaper than the wheels. 5
