Helpful Expert Reply:
Most wheels (rims) are not rated for psi as in this case, so the tires and valve stems are the limiting factor. You will not have any issue with 80 psi tires on the Aluminum Hi-Spec Series S5 Trailer Wheel as long as you are using the correct valve stem.
I recommend the Americana High Pressure Rubber Snap-In Valve Stem - 1-1/4" Long - Up to 100 psi # AM20907.
