FOR THE EXPERTS;
The tires I just replaced on my Carriage Cameo were E rated DURO brand tires. The trailer has 7000 lb axles. The load rating and max psi seemed to have been overstamped at the factory from something to 3520 lbs at 85 psi.
This seems like a bogus rating to me as most E rated tires are rated at 80 psi. Could this be legit or an underhanded way to get the tire rated for 7000 lb axles?
Interesting question. We might be able to answer if you gave the complete tire size. Also a couple of pictures would help. One of the Placard and another of the "overstamped" information. Best pictures of tires are when the tire is in full sunlight.
The tire DOT would be of interest to NHTSA if there is some violation of the law.
