8-14.5 vs. 9-14.5 trialer tires.

my equipment trailer takes 8-14.5 G ply tires. Can I mount 9-14.5 G ply tires on same wheels. They are mobile home type wheels with open center. As there any advanges by doing this ? Thanks
 
The 9-14.5 maybe too wide for your rims. They might make the center be too high. Have one mounted and see how it looks. The only advantage would be load carrying. Usually larger tires have higher load rating.
 
Steve there is very little advantage to using 9X14.5 tires. If you are buying new get the trailer tires, not mobile home tires. They seemed to last quite a bit longer than mobile home tires, I had an engineer in a tire factory once tell me that mobile home tires were made for 1 trip and they were the last thing made on Friday afternoons. Seemed to be true, I have been out along the road rescuing many a guy and gal with mobile home tires on their trailer.
