Tires: Proper Tire - Wheel rating, mobile scout, wheel manufacturer


Question
I have a 2000 Mobile Scout 5th wheel that recently had a blowout.  It came with Goodyear In researching tires I read it was good to go to a G rated tire (tire size is LT235 85R 16).  Goodyear has a Unisteel G614RST in this size but their web site says wheels have high load capacity.  How would I know if the wheels that came with my trailer can handle it.

Answer
Douglas,

The load carrying capacity of wheels is sometimes printed on the wheel itself - although you may have to take it off the vehicle, if it is print on the back side.  But this is not a requirement, so calling the wheel manufacturer is he next option.
