Recommended Upgrade to 235/75r15 Load Range C Tires on 2021 Geo Pro

Question:

I have a 2021 Geo Pro with Westlake 235/75 R15 tires that are rated load range C. I would like to upgrade to a tire with greater load capacity. Is there another brand tire with a load range E? What would you recommend?

The only ST235/75r15 tire we have available is the Westlake ST235/75R15 Radial Off-Road Trailer Tire - Load Range D # WST54FR which has a load range D and capacity of 2,910-lbs. These are a really nice, aggressive looking tire that we see used a lot on off-road style trailers like the Geo Pro, and they're going to give you a little bit beefier tire compared to your load range C tires.

With that said, there is not a load range E tire available in this size, but you could go down to the Westlake # LHWL304 which are 225/75r15. This size would be about 1/2" shorter and 1/2" more narrow than your current tires. The downside is that their capacity is 2,830-lbs, so they're actually lower rated because of the different in surface area, so they aren't really a great alternative.

I've linked a short review video of these two tires for you to check out.
