Higher rated axles and wheels and especially the LT tire will make a excellent upgrade.
I hope that's a typo there friend, running anything but ST tires on a trailer (regardless of load rating) is a very bad choice.
Truck tires are designed to work with a different type of suspension, and also to give the passengers a smooth ride. ST tires are designed with stiffer sidewalls and for trailer suspension.
Baloney! The sidewalls on the ST tires I junked when they were new, were so flimsy they were like bicycle tires in comparison. You obviously have never compared them yourself and are basing your comments on what you read...Truck has leaf spring suspension, trailer has leaf spring suspension. What's different??...I will never use ST tires again and have run my LT tires for thousands and thousands of trouble free miles.
