If I had 16 inch rims (or room to change to 16 inch rims) I would use LT tires. We don't all have that option.
there are 14" and 15" LT tires available
225/75R15
Enlighten me.
Goodyear Cargo G26 tires are a good option for those of us with smaller 14" and 15" tires. They are available in 225/70R15 and 205/70R15 with a respective weight rating of 2,470 and 1,985 pounds. These likely won't work for those that have 225/75R15 on their trailers, as bumping up to that size ST tire gives a higher load rating than the Goodyears offer.
My Maxxis M8008 205/75R15 tires with a 2,150 pound load rating have served me well for almost 5 years and have plenty of tread left, but are showing signs of dry rot, so I'll be switching to the 225/70R15 Goodyears in the next month or two since I now tow at 65-70 mph on the freeway and want a higher speed rating.
Below is a link to the Goodyears listed on Tire Rack:
