Expert Reply:
The tires on a trailer must all have the same load range rating as each load range requires a different psi rating. If you were to fill them all to the same psi then the weight capacity of said tire would be compromised. Therefore, you are going to need to choose a new tires that matches the load range of all other tires on the trailer. If you were to go against this then you would be at risk of a blowout due to increased heat buildup.
If you can let me know what size tires you have on your trailer I would be glad to offer some replacement options. If you don't know what load range the tires you have now are you can simply look on the side wall for the letters "LRC" which is load range c, "LRD" which is load range d, and so on. If you have 205/75-15 tires I recommend the Provider Radial Trailer Tire part # TTWTRTM2057515C for load range c or part # TR20515D for load range d. If you have 225/75-15 tires I recommend the Provider Radial Trailer Tire part # TTWTRTM2257515D for load range d or part # TR225LRE for load range e.
I have attached a list of all other tire options as well.
