Hi,

I have a Sundowner 727 three horse bumper pull trailer with rusted 15" x 6" steel wheels, which I would like to replace with aluminum ones.  Can anyone suggest a source where I can obtain the right kind of aluminum wheels that will look good and will fit properly? Thanks in advance for your help.

I suggest you contact the trailer manufacturer.
15 x 6 doesn't fully spec a wheel, you also need size and number of bolt holes, bolt circle diameter, off-set (or dish), probably something else I've forgotten - oh, lug nut type, there's a spec for the taper and it REALLY MATTERS on aluminum and mag wheels.
Manufacturer can give you all that for the original wheels, then go shopping at places where they sell "appearance items".
