honestly. Buy some Cooper Discoverer Plus. they are rated to 2601lb. Way more than you will ever need for hauling or towing with a 1500 truck. Also. they last as long as any tire on the road. Also they will help to keep the TT inline, and stable. I have had Goodyears, Michelins, BF Goodrich what ever. None were any better than the Cooper. Most were not as good, All cost much more.

Be aware the rims need to be up to the task as well. Them fancy rims can fatigue and crack.

It appears the OP is buying tires for a "1999 Dodge 1500 quadcab 4x4 truck", not a trailer.

Be sure to buy LT tires and not P metric tires. Look at the load rating and compare. Higher load rating is a stronger/stiffer tire.

Number of plies means little anymore.
