MT, my last rig had the PSI stamped on the back of the rims. My XLR's rims were not stamped but XLR sends them out with G tires on the same rims as an option and when they do, they are with the same snap in valves that come with the E's.... I only went to bolt in because I wanted to add screw on TPMS sensors and solid stems are recommended when using them.

Just curious what psi did those wheels have on them? What lug and or what load range tire was on those?
.....im going to go check the wheels on my tripple axle boat trailer.

It was a big hauler like my current one. A Road Warrior 30C with 8 lug 16"X6" wheels. They were stamped 110 PSI on the back. I also ran G614's on it for over 10k miles. Looked like new when we sold it last December. Great tires...
Previous rims stamped 110:
Current rims without any markings on the back:

Huh.
Just looked, boat wheels have no psi rating either and a loose tahoe wheel in the garage has nothing but the size and manuf. Numbers on it. I've never actually seen a wheel that i have seen a psi rating on. Now granted some of them i never looked for it either.

The Bearcat wheels I have on my 5er are rated for 3960#. Typically, a wheel rated for that kind of load is also rated for the higher pressures that the G614's rates for. The OEM tires on my 5er are 235/80R16, the G614's are 235/85R16. There is no difference in the tread width between the 2 tires, the only difference is the aspect ratio, 80% vs. 85%. That being said, if the rim width of 6" is OK for the OEM tire, it will be OK for the new GY's.

The ST235/85R16F tires are rated at 3960# @ 95 psi.
The ST tires are polyester tires. The G614 is a steel cased tire.

And GY confirmed they are fine on 6" wide rims so it's irrelevant what the composition is pertaining to this conversation as well as your assertation that the "only" size rim that is approved is a 16X6.5".

...and your point is?
The wheels are also rated to carry that weight. I fail to see what you are trying to say here.

Do you have something in writing from them? No matter how I put it they wont give me a firm answer. Their official truck tire data book still has the only approved rim width for the G614 as 6.5".

The 3960# rims are a new design for the 3960# LRF polyester trailer tires.

You're right. Most rims do have a width size range. However, the G614 is a one of a kind tire and only has a single approved rim width, 6.5".
Other name brands are on the market and all have the same rim width as the G614.

Yes...please move on. That horse is beyond dead...
The only reason I would have had to buy new wheels is if the current ones weren't rated for more than 80 psi. And if I did buy new ones, I probably still would have gone with a 16 x 6 inch wheel...with the G614's.

This is correct. It's the recommended width. NOT THE ONLY WIDTH. 7" wide wheels would also be acceptable. No, I don't have it in writing and I could care less. They told me it was fine and I know it's fine. As to the horse thing....YEP on that too...LOL...

I'm with you. Every wheel I have ever checked has not had a PSI rating on it. Weight rating, maybe, but no maximum PSI. There is no way to translate the weight rating to a particular PSI, either, although many people will claim this to be the case.

I guess my T07's were the exception and not the rule. They were actually stamped with both. "3750 at 110 PSI" was on the back. The manufacturer's website said the same. T07BM | Sendel Wheels
