Apr 21, 2017Really you can run any tire on a trailer that you want as long as it meets the weight requirements, but the towing experience can vary. I've seen P metrics on landscape, cargo, and popups that work just fine. These trailers have a pretty low center of gravity and normally not all that heavy. You normally don't run into issues when running passenger tires in those situations. Really if the travel trailer is light enough then you can get away with it just fine.
However, longer high walled travel trailers have much higher center of gravity and greater weights so flex in the P metric sidewalls can induce sway. I'd stick with ST or LT tires for anything with a decent weight.
