Holy smokes, here we go............Do a search there is lots of info out there. People are going to have all sorts of opinions on what you need to do, and what to avoid. Chinese tires have a bad reputation, however I now have Maxxis 8008 trailer tires on my toyhauler which is heavier than yours and they are holding up fine. They are much cheaper than the ribs and other high end tires. Someone will now mention the extra cost is cheaper than the blowout I will have, we will have to wait and see. My Maxxis are two years old and looking fine.
Good Luck

Fair enough, my mistake.
Next question...do you have a preference between an LT (light-truck) tire or a trailer tire?

Jeff, hope you can understand in the past couple weeks we've just had a HUGE argument between a couple members about tires. In fact that thread has been locked and another thread talking about how tired of tires came up. Don't take it personal. A search on this topic may give you a lot of advice and various opinions.
Would help to know what you have now, brand, size, etc. and how it's been towing for you so far.
