Also, I looked for a PSI rating on the wheel and was unable to find one. I have been running 80PSI.
I was looking for the same answer in a post towards the top of this page. I also couldn't find a rating on the rims.
I have never found an answer about the max rim psi rating.
I run about 75psi cold, figuring it will go up abit once warm. I need to check the psi warm to see what they are when warmed up.

its funny because my sticker on the side of mine says 65 psi to fill the tires. I have always been under the impression that you want to keep them topped off to prevent blowouts. How many miles do you think were on the tires when they blew?
yeah, mine has the same sticker and so does everyone else's..... probably should look at your tires and see what the psi and weight ratings are for the tires you are running. My tire's max weight rating is based off of 80psi in the tires. The tires are rated at a certain weight based on the psi in the tire.... not the psi the manufacture says to run on the sticker. Lower psi will effect the weight capacity of your tires.
Same as the truck you are towing with... the door jamb will have a psi rating listed. I run mine higher when towing the 5th wheel. Once again the tires are rated at a certain weight based on the psi in the tire.... not the psi the manufacture says to run on the sticker.
Original question was about the rim's max psi rating. Some rims will have this info listed to where it can be read with the tire off. Ours do not have this info anywhere listed on it.
I tried contacting the manufacture awhile back with zero success... here is the info if anyone else want to try:
