If you have any enforcable state or fed statutes regarding tire replacement on a trailer, other than 571 FMVSS which everyone is aware of, please post them for us.
Read the bottom of page G1 and the top of page G2.

The rest of the story
Posting a clicky to a website without a copy and paste of sentence/paragraph your refereing to doesn't get your point across. The only thing I saw concerning tires said:
(g) Tires and Rims - "The axles of a vehicle
specified under this subchapter shall be equipped with the number and type of tires and rims which have a load rating equal to or
higher than those offered by the manufacturer."
. . . snip . . .
The implication there is if your trailer came with the ST235/80R16 LRE China Bombs and you put XPS Ribs on, it won't pass safety inspection in PA even if your GAWR is 6K.
