I would never tow anything with a load range C tire. For a lighter rig like yours a D would be much better. More stability and they will last much longer than the C.
Interesting feedback. My opinion on LR C was based mainly on searching numerous threads on this forum and the popular opinion for 1/2 ton trucks. Again I don't mind going E it just looked like a C rating was the best compromise.
I had a friend put Michelin load range E on his 1/2 ton Chevy PU and he loved them. Ride was not as SOFT but he went well over 100K . Much better stability, that is what you want if you are going to tow a TT.
I would opt for the E.
