Having a hard time sourcing a replacement tire in "D" load range in 175/80-13", anyone direct me to a Canadian supplier?

Don't mind me, but what kinda of trailer are you hauling in a 13" wheel and a "D" range?

That's like 3000lbs per tire.

1010tires.c om doesn't show anything in that size. 14" there is one passenger tire.

Ask a boat dealer/marina that does sales and service?

I've got a rather large Rockwood Premier pop up with slide. Forest River seen fit to outfit the trailer with Chinese "D" rated tire's (1610 Lbs D rated), gross on the trailer can go up to 3200 Lbs (2500 dry). Can find the tires in the US, but I'm thinking that some retailer here in Canada should be able to get them? Called the RV place that sold the trailer, said they'd have to special order a complete wheel/tire combo, didn't ask what that would cost LOL!

Do you have room for 15's? If not swap the axle to under the leaf springs, might give you clearance
More choice in 15" tires.

Ask a boat dealer. Boat trailer tires can be had in heavy load ranges in smaller sizes.
Even snowmobile trailer tires.

Kijiji?

They can't get that tire in a D rating.......
Looks like a road trip to Detroit (and possibly a Vette show) ....
