The tire and wheel combinations in size 205/75-15 we currently offer are rated as load range B and C. Load range D isn't available in the tire and wheel size 205/75-15. It is as a tire only. See the FAQ.
With that said, I would really suggest you take a look at radial trailer tires like the Kenda Karrier # AM32395. The ply rating is 6 and it has a 1,820 pound maximum load rating at 50 psi. It will have the strength of a bias tire and the durability of a radial tire.
Radial trailer tires now have very competitive price points. They also have more flex than a bias tire and as a result, provide better ground contact, traction, stability and tread wear.
Radial tires typically run cooler allowing it to last longer. If you happen to use your trailer for off-road applications, a bias ply tire will have a stiffer sidewall though and in that case would be the better choice for highway use, radials are the better choice.
Keep in mind the basics by inflating a trailer tire to the max psi as noted on the sidewall and never mix the different tire types or load ranges.
I included a couple informative articles and video review for you too.
