A great majority of bike trailer tires come in 12, 16 or 20-inch sizes. As a rule, the larger the bike trailer wheel, the smoother the bike ride, and the better the tire tracks in a straight line.
This tow-behind child carrier fits most bike styles, thanks to a versatile bike coupler. The maximum weight limit is 80 pounds (two 40-pound children) with an additional 12 pounds in the rear-seat storage area. Some assembly is required.
If the trailer has no wheels, or you think the ones that are on it are incorrect, measure the bolt circle (the distance between the center of the hub and the center of one bolt multiplied by 2) and the inner wheel well carefully to determine the overall size it can accommodate when you include tires, and check to see …
Expert Reply: To measure the width of a trailer wheel you will measure from where the tire beads will seat on the wheel. That will be from the inside of the inner wheel flange to the inside of the outer wheel flange, not from edge to edge of the wheel.
Hold the end of the tape measure against the center of the bicycle wheel, and extend the tape in a straight line to the outer edge of the tire. For traditional sizing, double the inches to find the bike tire diameter.
Breaking a rim is always a bummer, but repairing it can be quicker, simpler, and cheaper than one might think. Rim swapping is a technique used by mechanics that allows a damaged rim to be replaced with minimal effort, and it can even be performed at home with some tape and a couple basic tools.
The common size for a travel trailer lug nut or wheel nut is 1/2 inch.
The standard six lug bolt pattern for trailer wheels is 6 on 5-1/2 inches. If you have a six lug bolt pattern this would be what you`d have. The pilot diameter wouldn`t be an issue either as the 6 lug wheels use a large enough pilot diameter to fit over the pilot bores of the hubs although they are not all the same.
You can add larger wheels and tires to a trailer as long as you have enough room for the larger size. The main clearance issues we find when putting larger tires and wheels on a trailer is from the top of the tire to the fender and from the inside wall of the tire to the trailer wall/frame.

I just bought an InStep® Joyrider Bicycle Trailer and the photo’s are not very good. When attached is the bike trailer hitch supposed to attach perpedicular to the bike and the spring bends to 90 deg. when pulled. It seems odd to me, almost like there should be another part.
ANSWER : The hitch part that fastens to your bike rear axle has 3 pieces, a dimpled washer which goes on first then the hitch plate and a pin that holds the trailer to the hitch. Take off the axle nut (15 mm wrench) install the dimpled washer it goes on with the 90 deg tang facing the bike wheel and in the channel so it can’t rotate. Then put the hitch plate on, mine faced down for the correct height, line up the dimpled washer with the bumps on the hitch plate to locate it properly. reinstall the wheel nut and be sure to align the wheel so it runs straight and true (I oopsed on this the first time) then attach the trailer, it is a 90 deg hook-up then you simply put the the pin in and you are good to go. The unique hook-up makes it so smooth and dampened that you don’t even know it’s behind you. We really love ours!
