If the tires are in good shape and less than 4-6 years old then there's no reason to replace them. Now if the tire was in good shape but you wanted something with a higher speed rating we have the part # TT48012C in the size you have which would work great.
Just make sure the tires are inflated to their max psi listed on sidewall if you plan to keep what you have and you'll be fine.
