13" tires on 16' foot a 4 lug or 5?

Did your Scamp's 13" tires come with a 4 or 5 lug wheel ?  I thought it would be nice if I could use my 4 lug studded tire wheels from our Geo Metro on the Scamp in the winter.

Geo Metro tires

I stick with ST tires for my trailer.  They are designed to be used on trailers, auto tires are not.  Sure, some people use auto or truck tires on their trailers, but it seems to me one should use the type of tires intended for the application.

5x4.5 lug pattern

Scamp uses 5x4.5" wheels on their trailers now. It is pretty much the industry standard. The Scamp spare tire carriers are for 5x4.5 " wheels. If you ever decide to get aluminum wheels you have a better selection to choose from. Besides what Gordon said about tires, Geo tires are more than likey too old to be putting on any vehicle.
