Not sure [Tires again]
Unable to find out rating on my aluminum rims, 235/80/16. Putting on G rated tires that require 110 lbs air! There must be a code, because there's no numbers! Thanks

Yeah....the same one ton DRW trucks we tow our rv's with and the same 3500/4400/5200/6000/7000/8000 lbs Dexter/Rockwell American axles and 15" and 16" trailer wheels and tires we use on all rv and non rv trailers this size. We don't use rubber torsion axles doing this type work as they don't stand up long term.
Your right...max pressures isn't the best idea in all cases and info like rvsafety.com says....
*quote ..... tire industry experts recommend maximum (sidewall) inflation pressure for towable tires unless this causes a sever over-inflation situation (20psi+), often referred to as the ‘basketball effect’. If this is your situation allow a 10 – 15psi safety margin above the minimum required inflation pressure.*
In other words instead of derating the G tire to 80 psi their recommending 90-95 psi at a minimum.
What Goodyear is saying is basically the same thing.
