I agree with others that say that you need brakes on this trailer. Are you SURE there are none there now, someone perhaps just having changed the pigtail? When I bought mine the fellow who owned it said he didn't think there were brakes on it, he having just used a four-flat lights connection. I knew he was wrong as soon as I spotted the original fully wired Bargman 7-blade connector!
I can- nobody makes a 14" LT tire. You'd have to change your wheels too in order to put 15" LT's on, and THAT would depend on whether or not there's room in the wheel wells. Get yourself some good quality ST's and you'll be fine- but definitely get rid of the P-tires. Per brand: I'm a lifelong Les Schwab customer so can only speak from experience per that one brand. My current trailer sized much like yours has been running on Les Schwab ST's ever since I bought it in 2005. I've worn out two sets without any blowouts or other problems. I did manage to destroy one of the newest set by deliberately underinflating it, but that being a self-inflicted injury I don't fault the tire for it.
