Steel wheel load value

No replies yet, and although I'm not an expert, I am willing to share my (limited) knowledge to try to help.
What model Peugeot boxer and what size wheels are they? The 15" and 16" may be different, and there are even 2 versions of the 16" steel wheel - the light chassis has a 5x118 PCD and the heavy chassis has a 5x130 PCD.
You could try to find a new and equivalent wheel advertised and see what the load rating is.
Many, but not all, load rated wheels have the load rating stamped on them - perhaps on the inside - so you could try to take a look if you have a wheel to hand.
My Boxer Maxi has the 16" 5x130 PCD steels. The plated higher axle load is 2400KG and I think the wheels are rated at 1280kg.

It should be on the rim somewhere 16 inch are usually heavier duty than 15inch and then the tyre rating needs to be addressed

Original tyres are 215/70 R15 109.

New tyres are 225/70 R15 112.

Just need to make sure the wheels will meet or exceed the new rear axle load of 2240kg.

There is a part number stamped on the rim, find that and you should be able to get the info.

Fairly certain steel wheels will be OK, why not give SV Tech or VWE a call they will know.
