Question:

I am planning on buying some new tires. The Kindra that you sell shows a tire pressure of 110 psi. will this wheel take that much pressure. In January I bought 10 of these rims. These go on a trailer.

I spoke with my contact at Dexstar and he informed me that the Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel, part # AM20758, is rated to handle 3,050 lbs at 90 psi.

I would recommend you get Karrier ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire, part # AM10248, to use with the # AM20758 wheels that you have. I included an FAQ on tire sizes below for you to check out.

The tire that has the 110 psi rating that you were referring to is the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire, part # AM10501. In order to use this tire at its max of 110 psi you would need to use a Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel, part # AM20768, but this wheel has a different bolt pattern of 8 on 6-1/2 inches.
