Recommended Trailer Tire With a Higher Load Rating for a 2018 Forest River Acadia

Question:

I have a 2018 Forest River Acadia travel trailer with ST225/75R15D tires on steel wheels and I want to upgrade to ST225/75R15 F or G load rated tires. Is this safe to do with the original rims. The wheels are 6 lug.

Looking at the picture you supplied, your wheel is rated up to 2,860 pounds. With that being said, we currently do not have a 15 inch tire rated higher than E. The Taskmaster Provider ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # TR225LRE will actually match your wheel very nicely at 2,830 pounds at 80 psi and will be the tire I suggest.

Most wheels that will accept any load range above E will tend to need a wheel that uses an 8 lug bolt pattern as these will carry more weight.
