Don't know that I could agree on the wear issue for Load Range E tires. I ran a set over 20,000 miles on my last trailer. I ran over 6,000 miles last year on mine and they look like new. Does the trailer bounce a little, maybe, but the torsion axle soaks it up pretty good and the trailer tows just fine (Triton Elite Top Cap with the 12 foot enclosure). Got my spare tire at the show to save on the shipping. I would get a Load Range C as your spare though, why spend the extra bucks for the tire to ride around?
I have a 12' Triton Elite with 2 axels and a Top Cap cover. Those E tires work well. I ran over a rear axel from some type of vehicle last year on I-75 at 75 mph, took a nice deep slice out of the tire and ran this tire for another 400 miles and no problem. If I were you for the price I wouldn't skimp here. You're talking 10 beers at the bar.
