6 years on LT265/75R16s... no problems.
I put cheap generic LT265/75R16 LREs on our Chaparral 355 6 seasons ago after one of the Goodyear Marathon ST230/80R16 LRDs that came with the trailer developed a bulge. I have not had a single pro...

I see.
That tire/wheel combo probably should work for you as your not towing a lot of miles.
Some years back a few of our commercial GN trailer mfg (PJ/Kaufman/Starlite..examples) came out with a 265/75-16 tire option and special 7.75 wide trailer wheels.......but after 3-4 years dropped the option. Too many warranty claims on the running gear parts caused by those wide base tires.
Keep a sharp looky on the U bolt nuts/spring keepers/wheel cracks around the lugs and cracks in the spring hangers.
