If you overloead the tires, buldges in the sidewall and cracked beads are in your future, regardless of what it says on your door.
I am running Method NV HD wheels that are 4000lb/ wheel rared, and running nitto exo grapplers that are 3860lb rated.
With an approx 3000lb rear axle weight, that allows up to another 5k in pin wt - and not many 5ers are that heavy, so wheels can be had.
Easier so if one uses a 19.5” wheel, which is also readily available.
