For safety, I want to upgrade to at least Load Range D tires. I have already bought online and received, 4 Greenball Towmaster SS Special Trailer Radial Tire from Costco.com. They are Load Range D, rated for 2150 lbs ea. But before I have them mounted, I want to take a final look at this, as they are still returnable.
I did research on a number of trailer tires online, and it seems you can find good and bad reports and reviews on almost all of them. The Greenball Towmaster tires are no exception -- I find mostly happy owners with the occasional bad review/report.
I'm looking for any specific tire suggestions for our application. Thanks in advance!

My 50 psi C rated valve stems work just fine with the 65 psi D rated tires.
I would really question the 85 mph rating on any ST tire.
Just right for Grandpa, Grandma and the dog.

Load ratings will all be the same on the same size tire.
The biggest difference in spec is the Goodyear has a higher speed rating.
Carlisle also has a higher speed rating.

Several of you recommend the Goodyear Endurance tire, but this tire is apparently so new that I can not find any written online reviews on it. Someone recommended I get that tire in Load Range E, but they don't offer a load range E in the size tire I need.
The Goodyear Endurance may in fact be an exceptional quality tire, I just don't know, but there just isn't enough user data out yet for me personally to justify spending $200 more than the four trailer tires I bought from Costco cost me. And, the tires I bought have the exact same specs as the Goodyear Endurance tires in the same size.

I would have Goodyear Endurance over Greenball.
Just had a tread separation on my Maxxis so not as excited about those anymore.
My trailer is about the same at 7880 GVWR.
I just had 4 Goodyear Endurance installed a couple weeks ago. The specs and ratings so far on this new american made tire looks impressive.

I believe the best ST tire offered right now are the Maxxis Radials. I haven't seen a single bad review on them yet and is what I will be purchasing next without a doubt. What is the speed rating on the tires you purchased?
With that said, if you are like me and plan on replacing tires well before they are worn out, I wouldn't worry too much about using the ones you already have.
Speed Rating is M. I just looked that up and the chart I found says an M speed rating = 81 mph. Wow, surprisingly high! I generally try to keep it under 65 mph when towing.
Thanks, I'll check out the Maxxis Radials.

Not almost all of them....all of them. The tires you bought will work fine.
