Tire PSI stamp

We are looking to buy new tires for the 5er I remember someone talking about the rim being stamped with the max psi but I can't remember where it is stamped is it on the back side of the rim or on the inside of the rim so tire removal would be necessary to read the stamp. Thanks

I checked my Al rims before upgrading to E tires and found "max 80 psi" stamped on the back side. No load info that I could see. YMMV...

I currently have GY Marathons LRE run at 80 psi. I wanted to know what the wheels were rated at for the future. If a 3750# stamp means the current 16" steel wheels can handle the 110 psi LRG Sailuns then that becomes an option for me down the road.

I would think most aluminum 16" wheels will handle a "G" tire.

Mine are stamped with the max weight (2600lbs) but not max inflation. As you can see this appears to be more common than previously stated.

Mine are stamped with max load, not max pressure.

3750# corresponds to 110 PSI



OP........

What is the MAX Tire PSI on current tries?
Your wheels will be rated for at least that


What tires are you switching to?
Is it time for your medication or mine?

Mine are stamped on the outside of the wheel, on the away side of the wheel. If you don't take the wheel off the trailer you'd have to crawl underneath to see it. But no need to remove the tire.

This is on a 2010 Fuzion.

The stamp could be anywhere on the wheel as there appears to be no consistency by the wheel mfgrs.

I think most will be stamped on the inside, requiring removal to verify pressure. I have heard of some being marked on the backside, so worth a look.
