There is a member of a camping club I belong to wanting to sell a set of BF Goodrich Commercial TA's that have less than 1000 miles on them. They upgraded their axles is the reason for selling them. They are 235 85 16 and I currently have Goodyear Marathons 235 80 16 on my 5er that came from the factory. My concern is the max load rating on the TA's is 3042 lbs. and the Marathons are 3402. I realize the TA's are a better tire than what I have. Will they work with my 5er.

They will work ,and it seems common on this forum for some to put a less rated tire than the OEM on their trailer, and many others that recommend it. I wouldn't recommend it, but opinions vary.
My biggest concern with the tire in question, does it fall in the time period of the recall on that tire.
