Expert Reply:
Tire capacity will vary by size but for a 205/75-15 Load Range D it will be a max of 2,150 pounds at 65 psi. Trailer tires should be ran at the max psi to avoid overheating the tire. If you run it at 50 psi the capacity per tire decreases to about 1,600 pounds per tire but it is hard to say for sure due to environmental factors, tire condition, and so on.
