I am going to add just a little clarification to Scrubjaysnest excellent advice. The maximum air pressure for your tires are dependent on what ply rating they are, not just tire size or trailer model.....which you haven't indicated (or I may have missed it). Does it say on their online inventory what Load Range/Ply rating these Goodyears are?

Here are your standard maximum pressures per Load Range

Load Range C (6 ply rating) is 50 psi
Load Range D (8 ply rating) is 65 psi
Load Range E (10 Ply rating) is 80 psi

Obviously, if you end up with 6 ply rated tires, you don't want to place 65 psi in them. However, if I was purchasing new 15 inch rim diameter tires, I would go with at least a minimum of an 8 ply rated tire like Scrubjaysnest. It's usually better to have a tire than can carry more load, than less.....as at least my camper seems to get more stuff (aka weight) added to it each trip.
