Default one more boat trailer question....i promise! lol

So i found a place online and the prices seem pretty good....im a little fuzzy on the ratings though so i figured i would ask fellow consumers instead of a salesman.
I have a 14ft flat bottom jon boat and a simple trailer....
Do i want 4-ply tires or 6-ply tires?
What rating do i want? I see they are in an alphabetic style rating...looks like for my tires i need i have the option for C or D......maybe B, C, or D. I dont have the page pulled up as i type this.
Ofcourse i use the express way so i would want a highway rated tire.
My tires now are 4.80-12.

I would assume i would want the 6-ply D rated tires, but i dont know how swaying and balance on the trailer are figured into that rating.

Maybe at this rate in 2-3 more years i will have me some new rubber! Lol.
