80 PSI on Aluminum Wheels
I'm running 225/75/15 D rated tires on aluminum rims inflated to 65 psi. The only GY Endurance tires I find this size are E rated inflated to 80 psi. I do not know anything about these rims other than...

"1) higher inflation will give more load carrying margin"
2) higher inflation will reduce heat buildup
3) higher inflation will help for lateral load stability
Overinflation causes tire wear, poor ride and longer stopping distance. Ask GY Tech support they will tell you to run tries 5 psi over what the load/inflation chart says when going up in load rating.
As I have said before I ran 85psi on GY "G"'s per GY's advise when upping my load range from "E" to "G". I would run 80 with the "E" tires because the load dictated 80.
But hey blindly use the sidewalls MAX # if U want when up sizing load range if U want but that is NOT what the experts say that make the tires.
