It won't be that big as I have a truck if I need something that big. I have access to a boat trailer axle which, and I would run 15 inch rims with a 26" tire to avoid heat issues.

Those 12" tires I see on jet ski trailer scare me the way they bounce everywhere.

Plan is the whole trailer/load is 1000 pounds max. The trailer should weigh 350 pounds. So more capacity then I need for it, and not to much to weaken the uni-body.
