Recommended Trailer Tire to Replace a LT235/85R16 Load Range E

Question:

I need to replace the tires on my 48ft tri axle trailer. The axles are 6000lbs and I have between 11,000-14,000lbs on the axles. Im looking for a good reliable tire to replace them with. Right now I have LT235/85R16 Load range E on there now.

My favorite trailer tire to recommend in your size is the # TTWPRG235R16 as it is a radial tire but also because it has an 81 mph speed rating unlike most trailer tires that are only limited to 65 mph.

With 6 of these tires you would have a total tire capacity of 24,480 lbs so don't let the lower Load Range of G scare you in any way.

I attached a review video for this tire for you to check out as well.
