Side scrub stress isn't about loosing tread rubber but like Capriracer and Tireman9 tell us its more about inter ply shear forces that we cant see. The best chance the tire has under those condition of not shedding a tread or breaking a inner ply is using max sidewall pressures.
Thats why tire experts and even Goodyear tells us to use max sidewall pressure unless the trailer was over tired causing a rough ride ...like using a load G tire on 5.2k -6k axles or a tire with 50 percent capacity above the gawrs.
Tireman9 rvtiresafety has several thread where he tells us about inner ply shear forces...this is jut one of his info talks...

interply shear forces Commercial trailer vs rv trailer tire tech ???
Not one bit of difference. Both can have the same axles/tires/wheels and gross weights.
