P tires work great on trailers especially P's that use 44 psi or 51 psi and enough capacity for the load. Before tire makers gave us the ST tire all we had was passenger (P) tires or 14"/15"/16" truck tires (LT). As lowsuv mentioned P tires load capacity is required by fed regs to be derated by dividing its capacity by 1.10.
Some very good quality 15" tires to look at for your trailer;
Depending on room in the wheel well and proper wheel pressure/wheel width requirements the Goodyear Wrangler HT in a LT235/75-15 C (50 psi) at 1980 lb capacity. Most LT tire makers carry this size.
And a Wrangler HT in a LT215/75-15 D (65 psi) at 2090 lbs capacity.
Maxxis LT U-168 are a commercial grade tire with several 15" sizes and have became popular with all types of trailer owners.
Vanco 2 from Continental another popular tire for trailer users has several 15" sizes and load capacities.
I see the Yokohama RY215 in a 700R 15 D at 2040 lbs capacity is popular on some of the other RV websites.
