For a trailer with 7,000 lb axles I recommend using Load Range G tires, like the Westlake # LHWL410. Load Range G tires are rated for 4,400 lb at 110 psi when using a single tire, and 3,860 lbs at 110 psi when using dual tires.
If you are getting new wheels with the tires, like part # LHAXSO513B, make sure you select the right bolt pattern as well.
I have attached a demonstration video of the products that I mentioned and some helpful links related to tire sizing and frequently asked questions.
