Expert Reply:
For determining the max psi for wheels like the Dexstar # AM20746, they are able to withstand the max psi of any tires that are designed to fit with that wheel size. The deciding factor is the tire's valve stem.
For example, a valve stem like the Americana Rubber, Snap-In Valve Stem - 1-1/4" Long # AM20903 has a maximum psi of 65. The Americana High Pressure Rubber Snap-In Valve Stem - 1-1/2" Long # AM20904 has a maximum psi of 80.
We do have 14-ply tires that are compatible with this wheel such as the Westlake ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range G # LHWL410. For this tire, you want to use the valve stem # AM20906 which is rated over 100 psi.
