I have another option for you, but the Westlake ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL401 you were looking at are only 10-ply tires.

Instead I recommend the Westlake ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range G # WE76FR which is a 14-ply tire with a load rating of 4080lbs at 110 PSI. The # WE76FR is constructed with double steel belts and double polyester plies making it a strong tire, and also includes a 2 year complimentary road side assistance should anything happen. You can call Westlake and they will dispatch a technician 24/7 365 in the US, Canada, or Puerto Rico.

I included a video of the # WE76FR for you to take a look at.
