It doesn't make a hoot what size axle is on the trailer as long as it will provide the load capacity of the vehicle certified GAWRs.
The standard for selecting tires for the RV trailer is the vehicle certified GAWR.
According to the trailer's certification label, nothing has changed. Anything (tires/wheels/axles) added that has a greater load capacity than the OE item it replaced is considered as having a load capacity reserve.
The load capacity (GVWR) of the trailer cannot be increased without certification. Recertification can only be done by the vehicle manufacturer of a certified vehicle modifier. In almost every instance recertification is more expensive than just trading for something with more load capacity.
