Will A Load Range E Tire Fit On Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel, # AM20532

Updated 06/14/2010 | Published 06/11/2010

Question:

You say that your wheels meet DOT standards, but what are those standards for a 15x6 6 on 5.5 wheel? Can I put an E range tire at 80psi on? Thanks

The Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel, # AM20532, is a 15 X 6 wheel with a bolt pattern of 6 on 5.5 inches. The load rating for this wheel is a maximum capacity of 2,830 lbs. at 80 psi. If you have a 15 inch tire with a load range E (10-ply rated) and a 80 psi rating, it will work on the # AM20532.

The 15 inch tire sizes that I have that fit this wheel are available in a load range of B (4-ply rated), load range C (6-ply rated) and load range D (8-ply rated). I am including a link to the tires that I have available that will fit the # AM20532 wheel.

I do not have a 15 inch tire in a load range E with an 80 psi rating available.
