Highest load rated tire wheel combo 16"

[FellowTraveler]

Any of you know of any 16" tire wheel combo that exceeds 3750 lbs

I know Alcoa forged classics 8 lug 16" and 285/75/16 e rated tires meet this 3750 lb rating but wondering if any higher rated combos in 16" are out there?

Too BIG

The 325/85r16 michelin XML tires on my Dodge are rated at 5070lbs per tire at 65psi.

That is a coooool dodge for sure, I have a 1994 ram w/12 valve just finished rebuild on 500k motor, rebuilt the 47rh and trying to figure out how to convince the lil lady I need a triple disk billet converter for it too.....

I'd love to have some 8.50 16 Michelin military tires but none out there.

I did find some commercial AT's "G" load range but only rated @ 3750 lbs @ 100 psi not exactly what I want.

So far, only found Alcoa forged 16"x7" 8lug has the 3750 lbs rating up to 120psi

Black rock wheels has some steel 17" wheels that are rated at 3650lbs.

Pitbull tires has there Maddog radial tire in 38.5x13.5 that is rated for 4080lbs at 65psi.

I have considered these as a replacement combo for my Michelin's since they are almost done. I got 2-3 years out of a used $500-600 set, can't complain about that!

Are these tires going on the Suburban?

The Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac 315/75/16 is rated at 3,860lbs at 65psi. I've heard a ton of great feedback from people on these and will be putting them on my SMB soon.

The Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac 315/75/16 is rated at 3,860lbs at 65psi.

I can confirm this info is 100% accurate in a single wheel configuration.
That would be my only question, single or dual?
In the dual setup the rating drops to about 3550 pounds.
(All tires get dropped down when going from single to dual configuration.)

 

[FellowTraveler]

Yes

Are these tires going on the Suburban?

I have the Alcoas w/SilentArmor 285/75/16 e wheels and tires rated @ 3750 lbs

what the hell do you need that much capacity for? are you carrying a Jeep on the roof rack?

Actually, a great question!

what the hell do you need that much capacity for? are you carrying a Jeep on the roof rack?

I'll be running heavy and concerned more when tires are aired down.
