Expert Reply:

The tire you referenced, Kenda Loadstar K364 Trailer Tire 6.90/6.00-9 in Load Range C, item # AM10040, has a weight capacity of 1,298-lbs at 60-psi for EACH tire. It is likely that the special purpose industrial tire you mentioned has that slightly higher rating of 1630-lbs for each tire but if you wish to send me a link to the specific item you're referring to I can check for you.

Since tire makers do not know the specific application - how many axles/tires in total are on a given vehicle or trailer - they will typically quote weight capacity for each tire.
