Check the lug pattern, but if im not mistaken, Gen 3 ranger rims will fit them. or anything along those lines.

I think most trailers would be a 4 on 4" pattern, so maybe some 15" wheels off a Ford Escort or something similar would fit?
If the bolt pattern on the trailer is larger, I think older Mustangs were 4 on 4.25"

Not all were 15".
Most Mazda rims we're 14" and some rims in Gen 4-5 were 16"

Escorts and Tempos are 4 bolt patterns

You can buy axles for fairly cheap, I would swap to a 5 on 4.5" pattern (common for trailers) and run 15s from a Ranger/Explorer.

Check Tractor Supply. They just built one not too far from me, and I think I recall seeing axles there for sale.
