Expert Reply:

In the 235/85-16 tire size you referenced on the # AM10501 Americana tire, the load range F tire would be rated at 3960 lbs at 95 psi compared to the load range E rated at 3640 lbs at 95 psi. The load range F tires are definitely constructed to handle more weight, but whether or not they will last longer than an E would really depend on the situations in which they are being used and the actual trailer weight. We do not offer any tires with a G load rating.

If you are finding that you have to replace the load range E tires over and over in relatively short time periods, it might be that the trailer weight is slightly over or right at the tire capacity, or that the tires are not being filled to the recommended psi. Trailer tires need to be inflated to the maximum psi listed with the weight capacity.

As long as the orignal was the same 235/85-16 size, the # AM10501 tire will work as a replacement for you. I am including a link to an FAQ on tire and wheels if needed.
