Increasing clearance on my Coleman versa trailer?

I have an old Coleman versatrailer that I modified to take a roof top tent. Anything I can do to increase clearance for taking it on dirt/rocky roads?

Ideally I would like to put bigger rims/tires on it but I don't know if the 4 bolt axle can take bigger rims?

On a 4 or 4 wheel you can get a 13" wheel/tire but the inside of the tire may rub against the trailer.

Next step is a wider axle with 5 on 4 1/2 and 14" tire/wheel.

I don't believe the 4 bolt will work for what you want to do. Also those small tires don't take highway speeds very well. I had something similar and changed the hubs and then used ST175/80D13. I picked up a pair from Amazon for less than $200
