Thanks to Bob de Kruyff for the lead on the USA made Carlisle trailer tires. That tire is a bias ply tire. I need 4 of those in a 15. They make only one size in the US. I also need 2 14 inch tires for the dolly. They're made in China. I called 6 tire shops this morning. Including one Goodyear. All Chinese except that one Carlisle bias size. I've had imported tires on cars, and trucks. No issues. But the Chinese tires seem to be another issue for me.

Bob, our 15" Carlisle tires are 205/75 D15 p/n 519400. Our 15" Goodyear tires are 6:70 x 15 p/n 140040342 (GDYR are getting harder to find. These two will interchange but the cross section is a bit different so you need to check clearance to fenders, etc. Our 14" tires are both 205/75 D14 Carlisle p/n 519102A and Goodyear p/n 120026010. I honestly don't know what the aftermarket availability is but it's worth a try.
