Hello Joseph.
Thank you for all the information, super helpful. For your trailer I would go with the Kenda Karrier ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire with 16" Black Mod Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2 - LR E # AM34834, the weight capicty is 3,050 pounds per wheel and tire, so that is more than enough for your (2) 5,200 lbs axles. They also have a speed rating of 81 MPH which is higher than most speed limits.
I also have an option in a white wheel, the Provider ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 16" White Mod Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2 - LR E # TA39VR. This one has a weight capacity of 3,520 at 80 psi, and also has a speed rating of 81 MPH.
