Any tire with a Load index of 105 (print on the sidewall) or higher will a capacity of over 2000 lbs

I have always had good luck Michelin LTX tires and they do come in 235/75R15 load rang 109.

All 8000 will not be on axles. Assuming you have at least 6 in wide rims, you can use Link to Amazon or another Link to Amazon
OR Link to ones I use carrying 8000lb on 4 tires.

Amazon has several others also link or link

Go weigh the individual axles at a CAT Scale and then make a choice.

Asuming you have 4 tires and 2 axles, you need at least 8000/4= 2000 lbs maximum load a tire.
Found with google LT 195R15 Loadindex 106/104 wich is maximum load a tire single 2050 lbs , and Dual 1984 , so for dual load axle ( 1 axles with 4 tires on it) to less , and for tandemaxle so 2 axels and 4 tires total , eanaugh to law but a bit poor .

But if you never load it fully , it would be enaugh.
When you load it to the max , minimum of 10% reserve would be nice for unequall load R/L , little overloading.
So that would mean a loadindex of 108 would be needed with 2205 lbs maximum load.

These are the things you have to take in to account when searching for tires.
