Does anybody know of a good place online or otherwise to purchase complete rim and tire assemblies for my trailer if so please let me know 14-in 4 .5 on 5 3.in center bore. St 205 70 14 thanks
 
When I needed that size for a utility trailer surprisingly ordering from Home Depot was the best price.
 
Try a local tire company - you're more likely to get a "fresh" tire from a local (mom-n-pop) place.
 
Etrailer or recstuff.com. They both carry premium tires and if you buy a combo, you get them mounted and valve stems for free.

Every time I buy new tires I get wheels as well. The old stuff goes on CL for 5 bucks and I'm way ahead. Local mounting always eats up any savings.

The online tire companies move them quickly. I always get fresh tires. The local shops may have them sitting on the shelf for awhile, so you might not get fresh ones.

You never know till you get them, though. In person, you can check the date code. Plus, if there's an issue, they're local and willing to help.

Online is fine. For me, though, I like keeping as much of my money as local as possible - and don't mind spending a few more bucks if needed, as well. I like supporting small businesses.
 
The big on line tire vendors will ship to your local tire shop. The local then mounts / stems / balances as needed
 
I need the rims also I have rust
 
As others mentioned, I ordered mine from etrailer. 4 Radials with a galvanized rim pre-installed. Reasonable pricing and the date codes were good.
 
Amazon. And free shipping with prime.

They had best delivered price when I bought for my old trailer about 6-7 years ago.
 
Going to order through E-Trailer thanks for everyone's help
 
Good suggestions above. I just bought from Home Depot. Free shipping, great price, and tire-on-wheel was all up my alley. Replaced both tires on my '01 trailer this past summer this way. Took one of the extras and am using it as a spare now.
 
Glad it worked out never thought about home Depot
