Bridgestone Duravis R250
Could I ask a favor of one of you guys running Bridgestone Duravis R250s in LT285R16E? Could you post the max weight rating and max inflation? It does not seem to be available on Bridgstone's site. ...

I am back for an update:
First I want to thank everyone for the advice!!!!
I weighed the rig this weekend (those CAT scales are pretty cool), I do not have the exact numbers in front of me, but truck was about 10,600 total, just over 6000 or rear and remainder on front. OK, there @ 11400 GVW, 7000 rear GAW, 6000 front GAW. Truck is right about 8000 empty so 2600, or so, pin weight.
And MORE IMPORTANTLY about 10400 on trailer axles, lighter than I thought.
So I am waiting for my new wheels from Etrailer DexStar 16x6 Steel wheel rated at 3960 @110 PSI. Went with the heavier ones for a few bucks more.

My local tire dealer is bringing in four Bridgestone Duravis R250s for $195 EA mounted, appears to be a good price.
Hopefully will get wheels early in week, then get tires then get them installed in time to head for the Fryeburg Fair!!!! WooHooo
Thanks again everyone!
