Goodrich Commercial T/A (Some still fail outside the recalled ones, don't use it near it's max rating like HHII did with twin Laredo HD/H)
Bridgestone R265 5-Rib (Too much sipping)
Dunlop Rover H/T (NO opinion, But Too much sippingt)
General Grabber HTS (NO opinion, But Too much sipping)
Goodyear Wrangler HT (NO opinion, But Too much sipping)
Goodyear Wrangler SR-A (NO opinion, ButToo much sipping)
Michelin LTX M/S2 (To much siping)
Uniroyal Laredo HD/H (See comment on TA above, but Too much sipping)
If you you have 33"+ center to center on your axles then get the 235's! Less than 33" center to center, get the 245's!
On the positive side, the Michelin XPS RIB, Bridgestone Duravis R250 and M895 are top notch all steel ply tires. For a Poly carcass the R500 HD looks good. The Transforce gets good reports for one of the lighter poly offerings.
If your trailer has 7K axles, then none of these tires meet your requirement despite your actual weight.
