I was gonna say something about some folks here are WAY overloading tires, but I'll stay my tongue. All I'll say is please keep it safe, and don't overload tires guys.

My tires are rated for 4K. My wheels are rated for 3600#. The stocker wheels arent much higher if memory serves.

I dont think you were refering to me though. And I agree, keep it safe my family is on the road.

I agree. Sometimes there is a better tool (large truck) for the heavy weight jobs.

The 6.2L pulled this Vermeer CX234 mini excavator no problem, even with the 3.73 paired with 35" tires.

Made mine work a little the other day. 2 yards of 5/8 minus gravel. She sat down quite a bit. But handled it very well.

14ft dump trailer with mulch. Not a huge heavy tow but it's doing work and making money.

Didn't have far to go. And it was still short of the stops also. Although I felt them a couple of times. All in all, handles it very well. Tow/haul was also on.
