Will these Sailuns fit?
I know, yet another tire thread. My concern though is I may have to order these tires so I want to know if they will work ok. My current tires are the 235/80/16. Should the exact replacement size Sail...

I need to go look, I do know axle spacing is 33".
LRG? Load Range G? As in they will be overkill?
Yes, if you have blow max tires, it is a good idea to dump them. I have a personal performance for LT tires on trailer when they are available. If you have 33" center to center on your axles and want tires you will never wear out, then put LT235/85/16E Ribs or R250's on it. I ran Ribs for 6.5 years and 40K+ and then R250's or my 5200 pound axles for 4.5 years until I sold it. Never worried about tire failures. Both keep air very well and very seldom needed additional air.
The all steel ply Ribs or R250's prvide a very stable trailer.
You just have to get past stupid tire stores that think trailer need cheap ST tires.
