tire rim weight rating

No apologies necessary... I leaned something.
I was not aware of those meanings and terms.

Member "enblethen" would not have replied had you not posted your data...
so it's all good.
Thanks :)

Where does it mention weight rating ?

Yup I totally missed the mark on that post...I tried to look them up and I'm totally confused now..:B

Disregard sorry.

My wheel rating is right after the wheel identification. It would normally be stamped 1350, 1500 or 1980. Should have maximum air pressure as well.

No where in that link does it mention weight rating unless I missed it

It is a 6.0 inch wide rim the K indicates the type of tire bead.

~snip~

I am not sure how to interpret that data. That is, not sure what "6.0K" means. It seems qty=6 so assuming it is a dually truck, but cannot imaging each one has a 6K (pounds???) rating. That seems very high for each wheel. Consequently, If the total rating is 6K in that each one is only rated for 1,000 pounds then that seems awfully low.

3500-3600lbs for most OE 8 lug rims

I have looked at GM and Ford OE wheels both alum and steel and have never found the rating marked on the wheel.
Good luck with your search.
