• Estimated Life Expectancy of Westlake WE76FR 235/80-16 Trailer Tires
  Due to the long list of variables that can affect the lifespan of a trailer tire, Lionshead who manufactures the Westlake tires couldn't provide a mileage number. They tell me that the average life expectancy of a trailer tire is between 3 and 5 years, which I'd certainly agree with. Trailer tires will typically tend to dry rot and crack before the tread wears down. The best way to maximize the life of your tires is to: • Keep tires inflated to psi listed on tire sidewall • Don't...

• Recommended Tire Pressure for Westlake ST235/80R16 Load Range G part # WE76FR
  The recommended/max pressure for the Westlake ST235/80R16 Load Range G part # WE76FR is 110 psi. With trailer tires like this it is important to always run the max psi to ensure you don't reduce your weight capacity and/or create excessive heat build up. So for this tire you'd inflate it to 110 psi when cold and any normal pressure fluctuations would be totally fine as long as you weren't exceeding the weight capacity of the tire as well as the speed rating of 75 mph.

• Should Westlake ST235/80/R16 Trailer Tires be Inflated to Their Max PSI on Sidewall
  With trailer tires you want to inflate them to the max PSI listed on the sidewall when they are cold and any pressure fluctuations are fine as long as you aren't overloading the tire and are below the speed rating. Yours going up to 120 psi when warmed up is fine. With trailer tires a good max temperature setting is 156 degrees.

• Best Tire Size For 2019 Keystone Montana High Country 331RL
  Yes, you can safely use a tire with a 6-1/2" bead width with a wheel with a 6" rim width. Any given wheel width can have several valid tire widths that can operate on it, with the narrowest of those choices being best. From my research the factory specs for your High Country call for ST235/80R/16F tires. Tires of that sizing can fit rim widths of 6", 6-1/2", 7", and 7-1/2". While all four sizes can safely operate with that tire, the 6" or 6-1/2”" are best. Personally, I would go with...

• Safe Max Tire Pressure for Trailer Tires with 110 Max PSI Rating
  The generally accepted rule for psi increases with temperature is that for every 10 degree change there is a 2% change in psi. For tire pressures like yours like # WE76FR that require 110 psi that ends up being 2 psi for every 10 degrees of temperature change. So typically tires get up to 120 degrees when in use on the highway. So assuming you are going from about 70 degrees to 120 degrees that means a temp change of 50 degrees so you'd probably see an increase to about 120 psi. So...

• Difference Between Westlake and Goodyear Tire Tread, Which Is Better?
  We have not had any customers directly tell us that the Westlake tires have failed on them. However, I have read on some forums that the threads split after a shorter amount of time compared to other options for tires. I recommend to replace them with Goodyear tires which is the best trailer tire out there. It looks like your tire size may be ST235/80R16. I recommend to use the Goodyear Endurance ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire part # 724858519 which is a load range E tire that has a...

• Recommended Tire Upgrade To Replace ST225/75/15 Tires On Tandem Axle Toy Hauler
  I may have another option for you, but 225/75/15 trailer tires usually only have a load rating up to E. Another thing to keep in mind is the load rating is as high as the weakest components. If your tires have a 3000lb load rating but your wheels are only rated to 2500lbs you will be limited to 2500lbs. To be able to find heavier duty tires much easier I recommend stepping up to a 16" wheel and using a tire like the Westlake ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range G # WE76FR. This...

• Can Trailer Tires be Changed From 7.5-16 to 235/80-16 Radial Tires
  A 7.5-16 tire measures 31.8 inches in diameter and 8.4 inches side, so you may be able to switch to a 235/80-16 radial trailer tire, but it depends on how much room you have currently between the inside of your tire and your trailer frame. The rule is you need at least 1 inch of clearance, and a 235/80-16 tire measures 9.3 inches wide and 30.8 inches in diameter, so it is nearly a full inch wider. So if you currently have at least 2 inches of clearance you can use a 235/80-16 tire, otherwise...

• What Load Range 235/80-16 Tire for Grand Design Momentum 397th 5th Wheel
  You would be correct in going with whatever the tire manufacturer lists on the sidewall as being the recommended tire pressure. If you're referring to our photo of the # LHWL401, I was unable to make out the pressure rating shown in the photo. This tire does have a maximum pressure of 80 psi. A Load Range G tire like # WE76FR would have a max pressure of 110 psi. The load range E tire has plenty of capacity to handle the GVWR of your 5th wheel. Although it's not necessary, there's...

• Comparing Westlake and Provider ST235/80R16 Load Range G 14-Ply Radial Trailer Tires
  I lean more towards the Westlake ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire # WE76FR as being the better of the 2 tires. It comes with a 5 year warranty and 2 years of roadside for flat tires in the US, Canada or Puerto Rico. Both tires have the same tread depth, load ratings and radial construction which performs better on the highway. The Provider ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire # PRG80235 only gives you a 2 year warranty but it does carry a slightly higher speed rating at 81MPH versus 75MPH...

  The wheel you are looking for is the Aluminum Jaguar Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 - Silver # 274-000026. As for the max psi, that depends on the tire. For example, the Westlake ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range G # WE76FR has a single tire capacity of 4,080 lbs at 110 psi.
