Expert Reply:
If you change from a tire like part # AM1ST90 which is a ST215/75D14 tire to a tire like part # AM1ST86 which is an ST205/75D14, the tire will be about 1/2 inch narrower and 1/2 inch smaller diameter.
Both tires will perform well if they are properly inflated and if the trailer is properly and evenly loaded. Most trailer tires have a 65 mph speed rating. Exceeding this speed can cause heat to build up in the tire reducing the lifespan of the tire.
