LT vs P Tires???
At what weight trailer is it a prudent decision to swap P tires to LTs? I tow a reasonably light trailer that is 5k pounds dry. Is this light enough that P tires will be okay for me? Certai...

I have a similarly weighted trailer.
There was time when P rated tires had limited max PSI. In those days I swapped out the P rated tires on my Suburbans with LTs. More recently P tires that are really made for SUVs and trucks have better max PSI. I can fill mine up to 51 psi. I've had P rated tires on 2 different trucks for a number of years now. No problem, nor do I feel a need to replace them with LTs.
