That's where I found it on my last rig. If it's not there, a call to FR would clear it up but I'm pretty sure you will be good to go because if they are offering load range G WestLakes from the factory, the rims must be rated for 110. Let me know what you find. I still don't even have a trailer to check...

I'll check with FR. I think it will be good as well, most of the 8 bolt rims I have looked at are 110 psi rated.

I'm with you, dude...I did the same thing and couldn't find a PSI rating on my rims (I think I have the same ones as you.) I found a load rating for the wheel, and some other useless numbers, but nothing that looked like a PSI rating. If BB can let us know what the factory rims are rated for, that would be a big help. I find it hard to believe that they couldn't handle 110 PSI for the GY G614s, but weirder things have happened. If you find an answer, please post!

Your good on the tires. We use the same rim for E and G rated tires.

That's where we'll put it. Just needed to know so when we order the gas lines we included that as well. Should have your second rendering for your paint tomorrow.

Thanks. I kinda thought that would be the case, but its good to hear the confirmation. So I can go shop for the G614s without worrying about bursting my rims (now my wallet is another story...)

Thank you very much Bob. It's amazing to me that I'm in direct contact with an engineer at the factory for input. I didn't need another reason to be happy I went with an FR product but I certainly have one! Thanks for the info on the tires too!

Can you PM me with your address. I have two paint colors for you to approve. I will need you to OK them, sign them and send them back to me.
