Question:
What is the Max air pressure that this rim is rated for?

Expert Reply:
The Lionshead Aluminum Liger Trailer Wheel # LH34FR does have an 1,820 pound load limit, but it will not really carry a max pressure as it will always be more than any tire that can be installed on it. I will say that you are limited to 65 psi due to the valve stem that comes included, so something like the Westlake ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # LHWL300 would match this perfectly. However, If you wanted a heavier duty tire, like the Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # LHWL304 for example, you would need to upgrade the valve stem to the High Pressure Rubber Snap-In Valve Stem # AM20904 as it is rated for 80 psi like the tire.
I do also need to mention that even with the # LHWL300 being rated to 2,150 pounds and the # LHWL304 being rated to 2,830 pounds, the max capacity once mounted to the # LH34FR will be 1,820 pounds. You are always limited by the lowest rated component no matter what the application. So just a heads up.
