The Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10501 that you referenced has a 3,960 lb capacity when it is inflated to 110 psi. Trailer tires or ST tires should always be inflated to their maximum psi otherwise the tire loses it carrying capacity.

If a tire is under inflated it will reduce the amount of weight that the tire can carry. If a heavier load is put on the trailer tire than what is recommended it will cause the sidewall of the tire to heat up and cause the tire to fail. It is always recommended to inflate your tires when they are cold.

If a tire is over-inflated the tire will wear the center of the tread, all the way around the tire.

I attached an FAQ on trailer tires for you to check out also.
