All RV trailer OE tires are required to have a load capacity equal to or greater than the trailer's certified GAWRs. For newer trailers the RVIA load capacity reserves will add 10% load capacity above the certified GAWRs.

Tire industry standards require any replacement tires to have a load capacity equal to or greater than the OE tires provided, via inflation pressures.

That's the way it's supposed to work. Any selections with less than those minimum requirements are a safety violation. With few exceptions, replacement tires with a designated size that differs from the OE tire designated size is a misapplication.

Which fifth wheel are you referring too. The OP has a 2018 358BH Montana High Country . I too am little confused about what fifth wheel we are talking about .
