All RV trailers have a federal certification label. It’s found on the forward LH external portion of the trailer in full view. On it you will find the size of the original equipment tires, rims and the air pressure needed for the tires. When upgrading from the OE tires you should look for something equal to the OE tires in size and load capacity. Larger is often better.
