The bigger wheels will foul the bottom of the trailer so you will need to put a spacer between the spring hangers and the chassis. Hardly sounds worth the bother to be honest. what are you pulling it with because most 4x4's are crap off road once you put a heavy trailer behind them, whatever tyres they have on....

Give Trailparts a call, 01923 253366. Explain what you want, and they should be able to source 16" rims with the Ifor stud pattern. There is a fair bit of clearance above the wheels on a flatbed, so you may get away with not modifying the suspension. Try to change as little as possible, as the running gear on Ifors is well designed and bomb proof. Good luck, and please post some pics if you are successful :-)

No jokes know, but by putting 16'' wheels on you are only going to get a extra inch and a half more clearance is it worth the hassle.

 

You'll get more than that as the tyres have a much deeper sidewall. I'd be careful dragging a road going trailer off road behind a tractor - the Ifors are pretty strong but a tractor/stump/rut/Rock combo will quickly rip off brake cables and bend those skinny little axles without you even noticing...
