Answer 1

I called my contact at Taskmaster and asked about the Steel 8-Spoke Trailer Wheel, part #MX59FR. They told me this wheel has a psi rating of 130 as determined by it's included valve stem. This is a silver Vesper finished steel wheel that has an 8…

The Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel #AM20789 is made here in the USA. The Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel #TA55VR is made in China. Both of these trailer tire wheels are 16 inch diameter x 6 inches wide and have an 8 on 6-1/2 inch wheel…

A J or K rating in regards to wheels and tires is a ply rating for the tires. J means 18 ply and K means 19 ply. Those two Load Ranges are pretty high up there in terms of weight capacity. The best I can say about the part #TA55VR is that it has a…

You can indeed put a load range G tire on the #AM20760 Taskmaster Steel Mod wheel, but keep in mind that the wheels themselves are rated to 3,750 lbs or #7500 lbs per axle. Since the wheel's capacity exceeds that of your axles, I don't think…

The pilot hole for your wheel will need to be 4-3/4" or more to be used with Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly #8-219-13UC3. This is a lug-centric hub which uses lug nuts to secure the wheel to the hub and your wheel will need to have an 8 on…

Powder coating is widely considered to be superior to acrylic paint in terms of resistance to chipping, scratching, and color retention. For a wheel application powder coat will definitely look better as well as hold up better than paint. Based on…

Answer 7

It sounds like you have a bad batch of wheels if they are all leaking the same spot. 110 psi should not be a problem for a 16 inch wheel at all. Normally a valve stem fails long before the wheel would. That said the Taskmaster rim part #TA55VR is a…

Answer 8

Is your bolt pattern a 6 on 5-1/2 inch or a 5 on 6-1/2 inch like you mentioned? I believe you are looking for 6 on 5-1/2 inch as that is the standard size. For 15 inch tire sizes that would at least match your axle capacity you'd need to go with…

In the 235/85-16 tire size you referenced on the #AM10501 Americana tire, the load range F tire would be rated at 3960 lbs at 95 psi compared to the load range E rated at 3640 lbs at 95 psi. The load range F tires are definitely constructed to handle…

Looks like Maxion/Vesper wheels like the #TA56FR are made in Turkey whereas Dexstar trailer wheels are made in USA.

Answer 11

In your situation changing to a higher load range tire will not affect the odds of a puncture (since the ply rating does not actually refer to layers of material in the tire but rather its strength). Moving to a higher load range DOES offer the…

Answer 12

There seems to be a mix up somewhere. Trailer tire #AM10501 that you have referenced is size 235/85-16, not 235/80. We have 2 tires in size 235/85-16. First, #AM10501, is a load range F and is rated for 3,960 pounds at 95 psi. Then we have #AM10295,…
