IMO--yours may differ:
Sorry, nothing to bash above--I know I'm letting readers down. However, I would enhance: Load range E tires (80 psi) aren't just a good idea; they are essential because tires are so often the weak point and take the most abuse from road hazards. Also because this is a toy hauler, depending on load, the tongue weight may be fairly light loading the tires and axles very close to their limits. I would also suggest tires with higher than 65 mph speed rating (Endurance--my choice, or Carlyle) since that provides some extra capacity at normal speeds. However, OP must be absolutely sure that the wheels are rated for 80 psi or new wheels are needed. And be sure those new tires are aired up to 80 psi!
