WAY overkill on the tires. Bet it's placarded for D tires, so E tires would have been much more appropriate. I'd say run them at 70-80 and see how it rides. Sell the Sailuns and get some Endurance.

OEM tires 235/80R16E
Shipping weight 9,870
Carrying cap 3,995

One would be hard pressed to load 4K of "stuff" into it. So dry axle weight is 8K, throw a ton at it and axles are most likely under 10K.
This trailer would do better with Endurance ST235/80R16E's at 80 psi.

Wow! That trailer certainly didn't look like it has a near-14k GVW! Yeah, E tires all the way, fully inflated. Sailuns are just overkill.
