Just got back from a 2K mile trip on a new set of Kuhmo's and I can say that the trailer handled a lot better than the last trip with the factory China tires.
They were the only size available in the 14" that had the load capacity and speed rating that would make me feel comfortable towing a loaded trailer. I generally stayed 60-67 MPH but we did run into some pretty strong rain and crosswinds and the trailer didn't give me any issues.
I have a highwall Flagstaff pop-up so it does catch a lot of wind
That is the same experience I had when I switched from the factory fit ST tires to the Kumho 857. In my case I had previously thought I was getting squirm from the rear tires of the truck, but it turned out to be the trailer tires. My camper is a 19' funfinder.
