Tire recommendations for 5th wheel
Does anyone one know if a light truck tire is recommended instead of the tires that come from the factory. I have been told that I should consider a light truck tire.

5th wheel trailers come in all sizes from 5000 GVWR and maybe 14" tires with maybe 1500 lbs per tire.
And bigger units up to well above 20000 lbs with large 17.5" tires with 6000 lb capacity per tire .
The last 6-8 years we have a much better new gen ST tires for us to choose as a good long term replacement.
Sooo...what is your trailer OEM tire size description and load range.....and just as important how many miles per year will the trailer be used. And will it see lots of highway road miles per year vs camping a few time a year 100 miles away.
