I don't believe in the quality of Chinese made tires so I run Michelin XPS/RIBS; an LT truck tire made in the UK. The Ribs are a commercial truck tire that Michelin OK's for trailer use. 2 1/2 years of several cross-country tows and no problems. I'll get these tires again.
Just so the OP understands the Ribs are very good tires for trailers with 5.2k-6.k axles but don't have enough capacity for the OP's 15.5 trailer with 7k axles.
As mentioned the ST Sailuns S637 G load range at 4080 lb/110 psi capacity or the Goodyear LT G614 G load range at 3750 lbs/110 psi are both a commercial grade all steel ply carcass unlike all other 16" ST E fabric tires that are problematic on heavy trailer (rv and non rv trailers).
Also check out the QR35 Gladiator F and G load range and a Hercules H-901 LT G at 3750 lbs/110 psi tires.
The 16" ST or LT G tires are all made for commercial grade use and are popular with those that tow trailers for a living (non rv).
They work fine for rv trailers.
