Brands are a personal choice and not an indicator of how they will perform for you.
I agree, however, this is based on EMPTY trailer weights. Once they have all their “stuff”, plus water, they need to weigh in at the CAT scales and then determine how much load capacity they have left. If you max out or, overload your trailer, you can have issues without enough reserve capacity. At that point you can decide if you want to change tires to a higher load range.
