Replacing ST 235/80/16 with LT
Looking at Firestone Transforce HT. My rims are 16x6.0, can I use 245/75/16 or do I need to stick with 235/85/16? My axles are 33 inches apart, but with the the 31.7 inch diameter 235's, I don't think...

We don't have issues with using the 245/75 tires on 6" wide trailer wheels. Now the truck is a different story.
I would be more concerned with the LT E having enough weight capacity.
The ST235/85-16 E has 3500 lbs capacity and works on 7k axles.
The LT235/85 or 245/75 both have 3042 lbs capacity and work on 6k axles.
What is your trailers GVWR and does your trailer have 6k or 7k axles ??
