Who make heavy duty tire in size 16 ,load capacity over 3500.

I have a set of Sailun S637 going on Sunday. I kicked around the Goodyears, but the price is good ($1400 for 7 tires installed) and they hold the ISO 9001 and US DOT Certificates... The tire size for my trailer (235/85R16) is a steel encased tire (60lbs/tire) and 3750lbs rating per tire. Good for my 7k axles.
Of course, all that information was learned from folks on the forums.

E tires I would go with Me Again's recommendations.

Say what? The tires I listed above are all Load Range G tires, rated to 3750 each.

If you are talking about for a trailer:

1. Goodyear G614 rated to 3750
2. Sailun S637
3. Geostar G574
4. Gladiator: QR35-TR(AS) Trailer Note: Most be (AS) for all steel

These are all steel ply carcass offerings rated to 3750.

Are you talking about tires for your trailer or truck. Goodyear make a "G" rated trailer time for 16" wheels. CW stocks them for about $350 each. Not sure they are worth the price. If your rig came with "E" rated tires, you probably don't need go to any higher than that, unless your just looking for extra peace of mind. $tronger tires will not change your legal GVW, even if you swap out your axles and wheels to accommodate the higher ratings.

Sailun 637

Hankook F19 will almost get you the desired rating...3330 lbs.

Only one LT tire I know of. If you have 7K axles 17.5 inch tires and wheels are your best option.

Carlisle RH load range F are the only ones I know.
