New owner here. We just inherited 2016 218MB Amer-Lite. Spent about three days on the road bringing it back to home 20. This seems to be an acceptable trailer for just the two of us and we plan to keep it. It towed great for the 1,700 mile trip but one thing I was surprised about was the 13” rims on the trailer. The tires are stamped 12th month 2017. Does anybody know if I can just simply upgrade the rims to 14’ or may even 15” when the time comes to replace the tires.

You could prob go up to a 14" but Im sure would void any warranty (or whats left) doing so. I have the 13" wheels on my TT and have found they are not a common size in most shops should you need one replaced (D rated). I had to order a set online to replace the worn ones on my previous unit with the same size since no one could get them locally. If you have the room in the wheelwell and between tires I say go for it, atleast to a 14".
