The Wranglers in the clicky are the wrong type of tread for a trailer.
You need the Wrangler HT wrangler HT.
They come in a LT235/75-15 C load range C at 1980 lbs capacity at 50 psi or;
.. the LT215/75-15 D load range at 2095 lb capacity at 65 psi. The LT Wranglers can be found nation wide. Run these tires at max sidewall pressures. The 35 psi in the placard is the max psi for those P tires on the placard. You have changed to a different tire so the 35 psi simply doesn't apply to the different tires.
The P235 15" tires on the placard in the picture are a P (passenger car tire) which we used before the ST tire came out...and is still used today if you can find the proper size and load capacity.
I would stick with the LT Wrangler HT as its going to last 7-10 years and isn't speed restricted to 65 mph as ST tires can be. Great upgrade option over the P or any brand ST tire.
