Not even close. The 85 vs 65 specification is the issue. The aspect ratio of 65 is an expression of width of tire to the height from bead to tread. They must be the same. The most critical dimension is the standing height of the installed tire. If a 34inch tall tire is matched with a 35 in tire the taller tire will carry all the load. Tire height is non specified and critical on dual applications, and on drive axles. Some off road tires are speced that way but trailer tires are not as far as I know. Even finding a good number match might have a mismatch in standing height. Sorry for the difficulty, I think it is a way for manufacturers to sell more tires to keep height matching. Most tire companies (installers) will not put tires with new tread on a 4X4 that has more than 40% of the tread worn off of the remaining tires even if they are the same model of tire. Jim
