I cannot recommend you run two different size tires on your trailer. It may not seem like that much of a difference, but the two sizes you mentioned have different overall diameters. The difference between the two is about .7 of an inch.

You will want to pick one size for all trailer tires. Part # AM10248 for ST235/80R16 or part # AM10501 for ST235/85R16.

I attached a help article on trailer tires for you to check out as well.
