Expert Reply:
Regardless how thick the metal is, wheel # AM20443 is rated for 2200 pounds at 50 psi. Even if the tires are rated higher than that you would still be limited to 2,200 pounds at 50 psi. Wheels tend to have 1/16 to 1/8 inch thick metal but the powder coating makes it difficult to get a true measurement.
If you go up to a 15 x 6 inch wheel, # AM20522, it is rated for 2,050 lbs at 75 psi. This wheel will accept 205/75-15 tires and 225/75-15 tires.
