High-Pressure Tire Valve Stem for 110-PSI Tires
Question:
I want to move to a higher load tire from e to f. Do you have and wheels in 16 or 16.5, 6 on 5.5 that handle 110 psi?

It is usually the tire valve stem that matters when upgrading trailer tires to a higher load range that needs higher psi pressure.
A bolt-in metal valve stem like # AM20906 handles pressure up to 200-psi and it includes two grommets so that it will fit a rim hole of either 0.453 or 0.625 inches. You will use only the one grommet that fits your rim. Rubber valve stems usually top out at 100-psi, as with # AM20907.
The tire you referenced # AM10501 is a Load Range F in size ST235/85R16 that does need 110-psi pressure. This tire fits on 16" x 6", 16" x 6-1/2", 16" x 7", and 16" x 7-1/2" wheels.
The highest load range tires we offer pre-mounted on a 16-inch wheel with 6-on-5-1/2 bolt pattern are Load Range E tires like # AM32764 and the others shown on the linked page.
