The Provider has a M speed rating (81mph) and has the nylon overlay that the newer gen ST tires come with. Higher speed rating is much to do with with standing heat issues/etc.
Also the Goodyear Wrangler HT in a LT215/75-15 D at 2180 lb capacity will give you 8740 lbs capacity .....well above your trailer axle/wheel load ratings.
These tire are good for 6-8 years and 35k-40k miles if you travel a lot. Their speed rating is whatever you want to travel at.....and available at any Goodyear store in the USA.
ok, I was afraid of needing to change rims with the E's also. Mine have a max load of 2,830 and it appears from what I can find that they could handle the E's. I wasn't sure if the load E would be overkill, but I was reading that a lot of people were upgrading their load D's for the E and were happier with the performance.
Mostly, I just want a better quality tire. The Maxxis have great reviews, but the Provider looks good too.
