The maximum load range of a trailer tire multiplied by the number of tires will need to be greater than the gross trailer weight (GTW) of the trailer. The Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" White Wheel part # AM32664 has a maximum load capacity of up to 2,540 lbs per tire. If you have only one axle then the above wheel/tire combination will have a maximum capacity of up to 5,080 lbs but if you have two axles then the combination will have a maximum load capacity of up to 10,160 lbs.

For a similar wheel and tire combination with a higher weight capacity, I recommend taking a look at the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel part # AM32680 which has a weight capacity of up to 2,830 lbs per tire.

I have attached a review video of each wheel/tire combination for you as well.
