Question:
My Aliner camper has Load Star st205/75/d14. Load range c. Said 1750. Camper weighs 2100 empty. What does the 1750 mean? Per tire? Total of 3500?

Helpful Expert Reply:
It would seem that the 1,750 rating that your tire has is the weight rating, but most ST205/75-14 tires with a Load Range of C have a 1,870 lb capacity at 50 psi like part # AM10229.
That would mean that when you combine the two tires you have an overall tire rating of 3,500 lbs. I attached a help article on trailer tires for you to check out as well.
