Maximum PSI Supported by Aluminum HWT Wheel # AM22659HWT with Steel Valve Stem

Question:

What is the maximum air pressure that this wheel supports? If I wanted to install Load Range G 110psi tires, would this wheel support that pressure provided I also had the steel valve stems?

The psi rating for an HWT wheel and tire assembly is only limited by the valve stem and tire. It is okay to use tires with a 110 psi rating—even on an HWT wheel rated lower than 110 psi—as long as you are using a metal valve stem that can handle 110 psi.

We offer the Americana Metal Valve Stem, # AM20906, which will fit the HWT wheel # AM22659HWT and is rated for tire pressure of 100 psi or greater.

Keep in mind that you should not exceed the weight capacity of the wheels, tires, or axles, whichever is lowest.

I've attached two review videos of the wheel and valve stem for you to check out.
