I have not been able to get an answer, and there is nothing obvious stamped on the wheel. My tire guy doesn't know either. My local Ford dealer parts guy THINKS it is 80psi--but he has no info that says that.I want to increase the Load Range on my overweight Class C from LR-E to either F or G and hopefully keep my 16" wheels & wheel liners vs going with 17.5" wheels & tires. Does anyone know what the max psi is for the stock wheels, or where I can find it?Ron

pull a tire or go to salvage yard and see what is on the inside of the wheel. I know they put the dimensions there not sure about the max psi. Also check a wheel store and ask. Not sure you will gain anything by going to the heavier tiers as they will weigh more and really not aid in being overweight on the frame and running gear. Whatever if you need to go higher make sure you install the steel valve stems not the rubber ones.As a last resort send a mail to one one of wheel manuf and see what they say. Arrow makes AM aluminums they might have knowledge on who to contact.

Your Nexus is overweight ?Not knowing how much you're overweight, or how much pressure you can put on a 16" rim, but according to Michelin's tire weight rating tables if 235/85 R16LRE's or 245/75R16LRE's at 80 psi would work for you they are rated at max pressure for 6,084# on a front axle and 11,112# on the rear axle. That's over 17,000# for a vehicle that's rated for 14,500#.http://www.michelintruck.com/michelintruck/tires-retreads/load-inflation-tables.jsp

There is info in here about wheel identification and also max PSI listings for various wheels:http://www.accuridewheelendsolutions.com/files/2012/09/Accuride-Wheels-Product-Catalog-Summer-2011.pdfhttp://www.accuridewheelendsolutions.com/

My 2002 F-450 rims are marked"80 PSI max"

Shouldn't you use the PSI that is on the sticker in your door jam, I've always been told the ratings on the tire is just a recommendation as the tire manufacturers don't know exactly what kind of vehicle the tires will be used on.
