Max Air PSI for OEM Wheels?
I'm new here and have a question. I want to go to Load range E tires with 80 psi max. Will my OEM alloy wheels handle 80 psi? This is for a 2000 Silverado with the OEM Cast Aluminium Wheels.

Okay, thanks for input. Now that I can use my OEM wheels with 80 psi. Any tips on what pressure to run when not loaded? I have been running the standard tire (max pressure 44 psi for about 2600 lb load on tire) and I normally ran them at about 36 psi. I'm getting the 80 psi tire for heavier load, (towing my 8000 lb trailer) at the limit for my Silverado. What pressure do you or anyone out there recommend when not loaded or towing and what pressure would be recommended when I'm at max load for my Silverado (I think the limit for my Silverado would be below what the limit for the tires would be, so I might not need run tires at full 80 psi. I know these new tires will be very harsh ride when at 80 psi. Any tips about this or anything will be appreciated. I'm new to towing. Thanks.
