Valve Stem Rating of Loadstar 4.80-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel
Updated 09/20/2022 | Published 09/18/2022
Question:
Etrailer recommends Max psi on trailer tire sidewall. However, the tire/wheel combos come with valve stems with lower psi rating. How can they be sold this way. With lower pressure, stem is safe and tire is at risk.

Expert Reply:
The Loadstar 4.80-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel part # AM30670 comes with a steel reinforced rubber valve stem rated up to 100 psi so the max fill psi of 90 psi for this tire is within the limits of the valve stem.
