Can the Provider G Rated PRG80235 Tire be Installed on an Aluminum Wheel?

Question:

I have a Cedar Creek 33ik 5th wheel that currently has the original tires with aluminum rims, the spare tire has a steel rim 6inch wide I cant find any markings on the aluminum wheels can I assume that they should be the same size. Can I use the aluminum wheels if I replace the valve stems to handle the additional pressures. I have been looking at these tires since November and the price seems to have gone up almost monthly why the continued increases. I was waiting to put these on when I was ready to travel but starting to rethink that strategy with the continued price increases. Thanks

With the Provider ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire # PRG80235 having a G rating, or 4,080 at 110 psi, you will definitely want to upgrade the valve stems to the # AM20906. These are rated for tires that use pressure over 100 psi and will be the best ones for your application.
