    Check max load rating on the tyres to make sure you can carry your load,

    I've 6.50 16's on a 12ft Graham Edwards for years and no complaints so far, I find them a good all round tyre and they seem to be wearing well although there getting weathered looking. As regards stability I don't know if they are better or worse than other sizes but I don't have any problems towing the trailer either loaded or empty. I tend to run them about 45 psi, I don't know if that's the recommended pressure but I find it works best for carrying 4-5 heavy suckler's.
