"I use 15" car rims on mine. Went to a wrecker and found 3 mag wheels with good tyres for $25 the lot"

I don't know with a light weight cat trailer if it makes much difference...but for trailers in general you are not suppose to use car tires because the sidewalls are too flexible in comparison to trailer tires.

The average car tyre will have a working load of approx 1200 lbs and my trailer weight is around 1000 lbs per wheel so the loadings will be similar. (I usually have 2 boats and all my stuff in the trailer). You should use a tyre designed for whatever load you are putting on it.
