Metal Valve Stem Compatible With Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel For Over 100psi

Question:

I want to put G Rated tires on my travel trailer. Im looking for that extra margin of safety. Is this wheel compatible with a metal valve stem that can handle 110 psi? Can the wheel itself handle 110 psi? What valve stem do you sell and recommend? The weight rating on this wheel is the same as my current aluminum wheels but mine do not support a 110 psi steel valve stem. Thanks!

The Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem # AM20906 will allow for you to run the 110psi that you need with the Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel # TA32FR. This 15" x 6" wheel will be able to handle the pressure. Be sure to verify your Load Range G tire is the correct size to fit this wheel and you do not exceed the 2,830lbs capacity of the wheel itself.

Do note that the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10303 does have the same weight rating of the wheel as a load range E tire. And by going to the stiffer G rated tire your tires will not absorb as much of the road shock so there will be a stiffer ride inside your travel trailer.
