Tires are rated for weight and speed.  The tires also need to match the 
axle on the trailer.  Once upon a time I had more specific information 
than that but I can't find it right at the moment.  I'll keep looking. 
To be safe, replace your tires with at least the same rating as the 
original tires (probably E, F or G).  For more info, go to a tire place 
that sells to commercial truckers & school districts.  In other words, 
find a place that sells a lot of heavy duty tires to people who really 
use them & demand safety.
