Trailer tires are not designed for heavier, high speed operation; ie, unless I miss my guess, the trailer sidewall info will tell you volumes ... all bad! For instance, the load range...is it within your car's range? Is the trailer tire a bias-ply construction? If so, she'll run hot from all that weight and tire flexing ( all tires flex at the tread...it's where the "flat spot", or footprint, starts...and stops).
Short answer...BOOM!
