what is difference. My 5er is 12,500 lbs
just got call from discount tire manager, he said to bring trailer by and they will exchange
I remember the comercial where they say if you are not happy with our tires just bring them back,
then she throws it through window:)
Maybe look at the 250s
LT215/85-16 E at 2680 lbs capacity 30.5" diameter work great on my 11200 lb trailers 5.2k axles.
LT235/85-16 E at 3042 lbs capacity 31.8" diameter work great on 5.2k and 6k axles.
Your 12500 lb 5th wheel trailer may have a 15-25 percent pin weight = 10625 lbs or 9375 lbs on the trailers four tires.
Or around 2600 lb per tire.
The LT235/85 E gives you a nice reserve capacity.
All above if the 12500 was a actual gross trailer weight or a estimated gross weight.
Your trailer axle rating tells the story there.
