Tyres with the XL marking have a greater load capacity, because the design makes it possible for higher air pressure to be maintained within the tyre. The maximum load permitted on a wheel is always related to the pressure.

Which is better 6 ply or 8 ply tires?
Actually the 6 ply will last longer than the 8 ply. The reason is the extra size of the body plies in a trailer tire will actually produce more heat while rolling than a 6 ply rated tire. I definately recommend radila and not bias ply construction. Radial tires wear much better.
Are 6 ply tires good for towing?
If 6 ply make you feel better, it won’t hurt to have them, but they will ride much harsher when not towing or loaded.
