I've never seen a 15" 6 on 5.5 rated under 2800 lbs.

15" 6 on 5.5 rims have to be rated at 2800+lbs because some manufactures install 225/75/15 E rated tires on their trailers as OEM. BTDT.

Thanks for the informative reply, with example! I would not want Kenda tires, after a bad experience, but the info does show that wheel is rated to 2,830.
My wheels are 15" 6 on 5.5, so not sure who, or why they are stamped 2600 lbs on the back side. The wheels, finish on wheels, seem to be good quality.
Like I mentioned, wt is not really the issue. They'll never see 2,500 on any wheel. I don't expect to have an issue with 75-80 psi, but looking for others thoughts, or actual experience. No where have I read, that you cannot put 80 psi in a E-rated tire, mounted on a rim labeled 2,600 lbs max.
