Expert Reply:
The tire, # AM32739, should be inflated to 95 psi regardless of load size. The problem is that under inflating a trailer tire will lead to degradation of the tire. On trailer tires, the side walls are thicker than on car tires so they can handle more vertical load. An under inflated tires side walls will heat up more often and quicker and will lead to early wear and possible failure of the tire.
The tire and wheel combinations, like the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire with 16 inch White Wheel, # AM32739, do come mounted, but not balanced.
