Easier so if one uses a 19.5” wheel, which is also readily available.
Your tires and wheels do not change the gvwr even 1 pound. In fact they can reduce the allowable load in the truck if they weigh more than what the factory installed.

I get it that in actuality a truck can be modified to carry more weight safely. Some opinions expressed are from those that don't have any regard for being legal. Other opinions are from those interested in being legal and and avoiding liability. It is ok to disagree and debate. Making something sound legal when it isn't, is not.
