I'm not Baron, but I'll throw in on that. Yes, the rim should be rated for the air pressure and the load ( in pounds ) for the application.
For instance, we are buying a set of these:

Sendel

....for one of the horse trailers in a 15" 80 psi rating so we can switch to LR E tires for it.

RogerDat,

The specification for the aluminum wheel indicates max load of 2,150 lbs per wheel or 4,300 lbs load for the single axle. Could not find where it specifically defines a max psi for the wheel.

The 225/75/15 tire is listed as a common size for the wheel. The wheels have performed well for 40,000 miles.

One problem I have found is that some service station compressors can't get up to 80 psi. I have on occasion had to add air with my own slower compressor to get to 80 psi.
