Expert Reply:
If your trailer has 15 inch wheels like # AM20545, then my best recommendation for you is the Loadstar ST205/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST92. This tire fits 15" x 5", 15" x 5-1/2", 15" x 6", and 15" x 6-1/2" rims, so please check if they will also fit yours.
This is a great option for your camping trips due to how the bias design has a stiffer side wall and works great when you have to take your trailer off-road. However, if your trip to the campsite requires mostly highway driving, then you might prefer the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10245. While the Karrier has an impressively larger weight capacity, both tires are more than capable of supporting your 2,700 lbs trailer.
