Looks good to me. 5'er has a GVW of 11,995-20% for pin=2400=9600lbs on tires.
Tires @2540x4=10160lbs. 560lbs to spare. Closer than I would want, but in reality he's probably not putting 27-2800lbs in it either. Dry weight of 9200lbs means he'll probably be around 10500-11,000 max. Minus pin of 21-2200lbs and he's at 8800lbs on the tires. That's a cushion of 1360lb. Or +340lb per tire. Certainly a different brand would be in order.
