17.5 wheel and tire combo....need a little help

Ok, I need a little help. I have read just about every wheel and tire thread there is but I can't decide on what 17.5 wheel and tire combo to go with. I have a 2015 V3005 that currently has westlakes on it. I live in Louisiana and I'm planning on going to Florida for July 4th. The problem I'm having is that I work in Africa so I'm not home to get tires until June 30 and I'm leaving July 2nd. I need to purchase a wheel and tire combo online and have it shipped to my house so when I do return I can have everything there to go ahead and do the swap myself. I also have to buy a jack so I can jack up the trailer the largest one I have at home is a 3 ton. Where is a good place to get 17.5 wheel and tire combo online that will ship to Louisiana and I can get a jack off Amazon. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't actually see what I have on my trailer at this time but I do know that they are westlake so and they are from the factory. I have no idea about bolt pattern or dimensions. Thanks again in advance for any help in the matter.

While I haven't bought mine yet, I know several people on this site ordered them from a trailer place in Edon Ohio. May be trailertiresand wheels.com but not sure.

Have same model as you put on Carlisle f rated for less than $800 now have 19,000 miles on them looks like they can go another 19. I haul constantly 2500 lbs of cargo in the plus a spare generator in the front two pop up tents and more. Also some have purchased saluin tires g rated without having to change out rims. These tires too are rated for 75mph

If you want to keep your ride smooth, and protect your undercarriage and bearings, have those new tire/wheels balanced before you put them on. A shop like the one I help out at could do them at about $10/tire, in about 10 minutes each.
