heavier trailer tires and fuel economy
I know heavier tires on your truck decrease fuel economy but what about on a trailer? Looks like once you get it up to highway speed it wouldn't matter? why I asked was I got tired of the blowouts ...

Not sure why a stiff construction would hurt economy. The steel wheel on a train seems to be very efficient. Soft construction and under inflated would seem more likely to hurt fuel economy.
Besides I assume the OP went with same tire construction ST-ST or LT-LT with only an increase in the load range (ply rating).
