Hey experts,
I'm very new to RV'ing and need a little sanity check for replacing my tires on my 5th-wheel. I have a small (19') 1984 Alpine Lite (dual axle) that currently has ST225/75/15D tires that need replacing. These are tires that came on the trailer and they seem rather old and actually over-rated for my rig. My trailer specs are GVWR:6292 lbs, GAWR (front and back)-3196 lbs, P205/75/R15 @ 32psi. If I divide the GVWR by 4 that's 1573 lbs/tire. My question.. Is a more standard duty light truck P205/75/R15 load rated above say 1600 lbs be a good choise as replacement tires? They would be cheaper and should give a better ride.
Help Please...TANGO
