Trailer tires? Which ones?

[CA-RJ]

I am now the proud owner of a Bantam civilian trailer and it needs new tires. It currently sits on 235/75-15's on some old Jeep CJ steel wheels. One of the wheels is a bit bent, so I want to buy new ones. The trailer sits level with the truck in it's current setup so I don't think I want to put larger tires on it.

So, how do I decide what tire to run on the trailer? I'm trying to keep this budget friendly, so I do not want to buy a pair of BFG KM2's to match what's on my truck. I was thinking a budget all terrain instead. I can get some Kumho KL78 AT's for $70 each. Is this enough tire for an off-road trailer?

I would suggest going on the tire man. web site an taking a look at the weight ratings for that size tire. Make sure that between the two of the tires, you have more capacity than your axle. If that's the case, go for it.
