Hey John, thanks for reaching out. According to the specs I found online, the Forest River Salem 22ERAS comes with stock 225/75-15 radial tires. I couldn't find the exact ply/load rating published anywhere though, so I do recommend checking the sidewall of the tires to confirm this. The highest load rating we offer for a ST225/75R15 tire is load range E which is 10-ply rated:

- Karrier ST225/75R15 KR53 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # KE65TJ

That will be our best option if you are looking to upgrade. The # KE65TJ comes with the tire only. If you are looking for new rims as well, we can absolutely provide those.

What bolt pattern do your current rims have? Is there a specific color or style of rim you are after?
