Basically the question above.
I dont understand the reasing behind this.
Especially in regard to the heavier weight of campers. Shouldnt it be the other way?

Camping trailers are surprisingly light. Partly this is so you don’t have to tow as much weight. They also don’t have to have the same crash ratings since you’re not supposed to be riding in one while it’s being towed. They’re basically a really lightweight fiberglass and aluminum box with paper thin walls. There no engine or powertrain. The tires are under minimal strain because they aren’t holding up much weight, no engine power is running through them, they don’t steer, and they do little to no braking. They literally just hold the thing off the ground. People also don’t commute daily on their camping trailer so you don’t need particularly durable tires.
