I guess I don't understand the need of a 16" tire/wheel with just 5 lugs and a 3500 lb axle ??
We have 15" LT tires and multi position tires with 1980 lb up to 2400 lbs capacity for a 15" 5 lug wheel 3500 lb axles which is plenty of reserve.
16" E ST and LT tires start at 2680 and go up to 3800 lbs . Not a good match up for a 5 lug wheel with a 1750-2000 lb (minimum) weight requirements.
