I happen to like my g614's. Just north of 22k of tires on 21k of axles on a trailer with a gvwr of 18k. The 75 speed limit leaves lots of headroom in states with higher then 65 speed limits.
Keep in mind the two biggest causes of tire failure are overloading, and underinflating. I have so much headroom on my tires they can be 30 psi underinflated, and still be within specs (I run 110 psi). In theory, subtracting pin weight, I can support the trailers gvwr on 2 axles at full pressure.
