    personally I wouldn't waste the money. First, your wheels in the picture are look great, and secondly there is not much ride with such a low profile tire.

      Those wheels look awesome, but I would worry about how much more your boat will bounce on the trailer as the wheels absorb quite a bit of bounce when going over bumps - if you watch the wheels in the mirror as you hit a bump I think you will be surprised as to how much flexing goes on - though maybe thats because my trailer is a single axle. I would also think these tires would be more susceptible to blow outs due to the minimal side wall thickness.

        I would not suggest using the wheels. While the factory wheels have quite a bit of side wall, that side wall helps with bumps in the road. The 40 or 50s series tires you are proposing dont stand a chance since the trailer don't the best suspension in the world.
