Rickfox,
I agree, with that. tires and axles should be rated higher. anything over 80% of axle rating i believe you enter into a safety margin for overload prevention. I mean like the weight shifting that happens at highway or city cornering. Way it is now, I am sure weight loads on individual tires is happening and just matter of time before that effect causes problems. For this reason I will be updating to 7000 axles and G type tires. while keeping my loads as the trailer is currently rated. That way as loaded i should be at or close to the 80% rule my dad swore by, and he never got a failure from his tires (except road hazards).
Wish all RV manufactures had spare capacity for loads built in. Am surprised that they don't think the liability factor would influence this but guess not.
