Do ALL wheels have load markings??
I have looked all over my Monty's wheels to try and find a load rating. Broke two nails and bumped my head real good crawling around underneath that puppy...
I couldn't find any markings on outside or inside other than what looks like a date of some kind. Should the ratings be on the wheels where I can find them with the tires mounted?

Many of the older wheels don't have the markings. Call Tredit Tire, 800-537-2925. The lady who spoke at the fall rally offered that if we emailed her a picture of the wheels she would tell you what you have.

On our 2010, each wheel has the PSI marking, but you have to take the wheel off the axle to see. On the back side. On our 2005, I called Keystone, who gave me the wheel manufacturer, who provided the PSI info. The 2005 wheels were not rated for G load tires, and apparently the late model Montanas are coming equipped with the stronger rims.

I haven't found mine, yet, but assume they are at least 80 psi rated since everyone else has mentioned it. I also have to admit I have bumped my head or broke my nails looking for them - that is, I haven't tried all that hard.

When I changed tires on my 2008, we found a sticker on the inside of the each wheel after removing the tire. Not exactly the brightest place to hide the rating!

Since we do like our Montana so much, I hate to complain, but it would be nice if simple things like this had simple answers!

I found the number 3400 on the inside of my wheels the last time I replaced brake shoes. I assume that means 3400 pound capacity. I was suprised they were all marked the same way.
I can not find a rating for the wheels on my TV.

You will have the 80# on your year unless they have been upgraded.

Pat,
When speaking of "inside" I believe everyone is talking about having to take the tire off the rim and see the inside of the rim. On our 2008 Monty, Tredit had stamped on the inside, 80 psi, but there was a sticker that was also on the rim (inside-remove tire from rim) that stated 110 psi and the new load rating. It's somewhere in this forum with pictures.
A call to Keystone and Tredit, indicated that Keystone wanted the rims to be rated higher, so rather than punching new stamped ratings, they just added the sticker at Tredit. (I think it was Tredit that added the sticker.)
Good luck - Happy trails.

We did not have to take the tire off the rim, just the wheel off the axle. Was not a sticker but a stamp

The stamps can be on the outside or the inside. Depends on the run of the milling production.
Do a search on the forum for the word "Tredit" without the quotes and a lot if information will come up.
Here is one particular thread, but this link is on page 1, however onr must read the whole thread and other threads on Tredit to get an understanding of what is going on.
To see the information in the pictures of the link the tire had to be taken off the rim.
