Expert Reply:
Load ranges are basically an easy way to organize trailer tire capacities. They will vary based on the tire size. For example a Load Range C tire in the 4.80-12 tire size like the part # AM30660 that you referenced has a 990 lb capacity at 90 psi.
A Load Range C ST205/75D14 like part # AM3S440 would have a 1,760 lb capacity at 50 psi.
I wish I had a simpler answer to provide for you.
I attached a help article on trailer tire sizing that has all the sizes we carry and the capacities of each of the Load Ranges for each size.
