What is the actual weight on your RV tires? You simply will not find a better RV tire and it's US Made.

4400 lbs @ 110 psi

That's the weight rating "of the tires", not the weight per wheel/axle.

And contrary to what was said, unless you're pushing the "minimum" pressure for the weight, at, say, 80psi on a 14pr tire, running them at 80 psi (or something reasonable, less than 110 psi max, if not needed) will no hurt the tires one bit.

oops, forgot to mention, Thanks Grit Dog. I don't think the tires will be hurt at 80 or so PSI either, my overall normal travel weight in the trailer is about 15,400 full of water, propane, food etc.
I am comfortable knowing there is enough capacity in the tires for the trailer on it's own.

funny, I just left Discount tire to get yet another opinion on what they installed. Stated that the Goodyear comparable tire is twice the cost at around $400 per tire. Also stated that at minimum should be kept at what the tire pressure rating on the tire is, (110 psi), but as he said their store can only air up to 90 psi max. Another one of those things that make you go HMMM. Well, already bought, I will deal with it, and all should be good. the compressor I have in my tool box gets me to about 60 or 65 for emergencies, but I will look for another better one. We all have opinions and getting five different people will of course get 7 to 10 different views. my next call will be to the manufacturer, if lucky enough to get info from them.
Have a great day.

The ST235/80-16" load E are a 80 psi tire.
The Load G Hartlands are a 110 psi rated tire.
The trailer wheels will need to have a 110 psi rating if you want to enjoy the full use of the G tires.
Running a commercial grade all steel ply carcass G 110 psi tire on a trailer at 80 psi isn't the best idea.

Hartland ST235/85-16 load G is another commercial grade tire made in china that first came out on commercial trailers in the '15 era. Like other made in china load G commercial class tire they are popular with owners of those type trailers. These tires have a 13/32" tread depth for a long miles of service life vs other ST tires with 8-9/32" of tread depth.

Check out other rv forums about Hartland commercial grade all steel ply carcass ST235/85-16 G tires. Hartland makes other size/C/D/E ST poly carcass tires so don't confuse them with the all steel ply commercial grade ST tire.

yes these are the "ALL STEEL"

Sorry:
Size is or was ST 235/80 R16 E 10PR
Hartland had ST 235/85/R16 N 14 PR
Now that I am home, I will do some more checking.
Discount has always been good to me, so if need to change them out, they will.

Discount tire doesn't list a G rater GY tire in the size I use but the OP didn't say what size he needs.
In my size 238/80/16 E rated tires there is only $18 difference in price between the Hartland and the Good Year. That's a no brainer for me GY every time.
