Hello, I currently tow a lq horse trailer. Is the trailer a gooseneck I assume? How much pin weight does your trailer put on the truck? Also what is the weight rating of the wheels?

Going to depend 100% on the weight rating of the wheel.
What brand wheel are you looking at?
Gooseneck yes. Pin weight ? i don't know the wheel rating
American Force Wheels
You need to call American Force and ask what the load rating of your wheel of choice is.Originally Posted by Rapidfire_70
The only wheel with published load rating is their 19.5 dually wheel.

What should wheel rating be around?
Just called American Force.
Wheel Load Rating at 3500 lbs.
Wheel Load – this is the maximum load that the wheel is designed to carry. The wheel load is determined by taking 50% of the heaviest axle rating of the vehicle (GAWR – gross axle weight rating).
Example; if your heaviest axle weight rating is 3000 lbs then your wheel load requirement would be 1500 lbs.
With a wheel load rating of 3500 lbs a 2500 RAM most likely has a 6500 lb rear axle rating I think.
So those wheels can out do the axle. The axle or tires will most likely by the limiting factor.
Because of the rear axle rating is why I got rid of my 2018 2500 and got a 2019 3500 dually.
