On my particular trailer, I just came off the scales Friday with the trailer loaded just as it is when I travel. Trailer weight...10,380. I run 75 psi cold pressure, which gives me 3260 lbs per tire (ST235/80/16E tires). That is a total load capacity of 13,040 lbs. So I have a reserve of 2660 lbs which works out to 665 lbs per tire.
I'm wondering what brand tire you are talking about? I've never seen Maxxis tires as OEM for keystone. If you have another brand you may have more load capacity than you think you have. Keystone likes to use ST235/80R16E tires that have 3520# of load capacity @ 80 psi.Your tire's sidewalls will tell you what you have.
