Valve Stem Rating of Lionshead Tire and Wheel
Updated 04/01/2019 | Published 03/29/2019
Question:
Discount Tire manager said valve stem was only rated for 50 lbs. They installed a high pressure valve stem to handle 65 lbs when they patched the tire. I have two trailers and 8 of these trailer tires no problem with towing 7,000 lbs, but Im still wondering is the stock valve stem rated for 65 lbs?

I reached out to the manufacturer who said the valve stem on the Westlake ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 15" Silver Mod Wheel # LHAW121 has a rating of 65 psi.
This wheel and tire combo has a 15" diameter x 5" wide wheel with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern. The tire size is 205/75R15 and a load range of D for a 2,150 lb capacity when filled to 65 psi.
I have added a link to a video review of this wheel and tire for you to take a look at.
