A way to roughly estimate: I've read before that every tire on a mobile home is designed to support 1 ton (2000 pounds), and the trailer hitch is also made to support 1 ton. So, a single trailer with 4 wheels (not 4 axles) would weigh about 5 tons, or 10,000 pounds.
Typically, a 7x14.5 mobile home tire is starting at approximately 2300lbs capacity at Max air pressure. A two axle, 4 tire trailer is going to have at least 9,200 lbs of capacity in the tires. Heavier ply tires will have higher capacities. Also, don't forget that they are made for moving absolutely empty. No furniture, clothing, or anything else. Anything else in the home will just add to the weight, obviously.
Now their are also 8x14.5 tires and 9x14.5 tires that are incrementally height in rated capacities, keep that in mind and check what is on the mobile home.
