Hello John, good question. The Rack'Em Spare Tire Mount for Enclosed Trailers # RA-16 does not have a specific weight capacity attached to it. Mainly because the actual weight holding capacity also depends on what hardware you use, and the strength of your trailer wall. Basically it can hold the weight of any 4-lug or 5-lug trailer wheel/tire. We have heard of it working for 6-lug wheels as well, but I would have to caution against using it for anything larger than a 5-lug wheel.
