Question:

Your AM32664 15 tire and wheel combo is a D rated combo @ 65 psi for a weight capacity of 2560 #. You also have listed a Dexstar Steel Spoke Wheel only AM20532 that is 15 but has an 80 psi rating. My question... Is the wheel listed for the AM32664 the same as the Dexstar Steel Spoke AM20532? Most 15 6 bolt wheels have a 75 psi max. Thats what I assume the AM326664 is rated at. Thanks

The wheel should be the same in both the combo, part # AM32664, and the wheel only part # AM20532. I double checked with our Dexstar catalog and the wheel has a maximum capacity of 2830 pounds at 80 psi. The 2540 pound limit at 65psi on the combo is limited by the tire.

Dexstar lists their 5 bolt, 15x6 wheels at 75psi maximum.
