    Thank you everyone for the help and suggestions. Stopped by Discount Tire on Vivian during my lunch break. They were so knowledgeable it was a fresh change of pace. They had all the tires in stock even a spare 5 lug rim for a spare since I've never had one . We weren't sure what would fit 205/215 so they said they would try both and see how it looked with clearance. It was kinda slow at work so i took a little longer lunch, went and go the boat and dropped it off. It was ready in 40 min and I picked it up after work. They were awesome to deal with and I couldn't be happier buying tires! lol

    Kit- i ended up with Carlisle 215/75R14's. Only pulled it 15 min back to storage but I could tell the difference immediately. No more side to side sway and it was much smoother. Actually looking forward to hauling it around now that I'm not worrying about a blowout leaving me on the side of the road!

    Sounds like a great place to do business with. Glad they got you fixed up with a spare also. Check and make sure your jack will lift the trailer up enough to get a tire back on after a flat. Been there and done that. Glad to have some good friends that were able to bring me a floor jack the first time. The last time I was about 3 miles out of Clinton and had to leave the boat and fly to Wally World because it was closest place to get a jack. I now have a small floor jack in the truck at all times. Only took me 2 times to learn my lesson .

    I just had all four tires replaced on my wife's car a week or so ago. Went into the new Discount Tire in Liberty. Just popped in on a Saturday afternoon. Guy comes out and meets me in the parking lot. Fast, friendly, professional, and reasonable prices. Did I mention FAST? It was great. I'll likely be going back there again and again. I just didn't know how they were with trailer tires, so I didn't weigh in on that one. Glad you got it squared away, Justin. One less thing to worry about. 'Specially with that spare ya got now!
