Tire dilema/question

Within the next 3 months I will be replacing the tires on my 5th wheel (28'). I have read many of the posts on tires and recommendations but could not find an answer to my question. My tires on the trailer are 225 15" with an 8 ply rating, I thought about putting LT tires on but can not find any LT tire in a 15" with a rating of 8 or 10 ply. So now I'm back to looking at trailer tires and selection seems limited in a 15". So any suggestions or experiences you have had running 15" tires.

    If I couldn't put LT tires on I would go with Maxxis ST tires. I have run them before and they were excellent tires.

    The ST225/75R15 tire is manufactured by a number of brand names in LRE (10 ply rated).
