Good point about the rim specs. I don't have that info for my wheels, but supposed to take Ds. I saw a note somewhere in all the bumph for the rig that said 6" and don't use tires that need 6.5"? Ds are good to 65 lbs so I figure 65 in the Es will be ok even if the rims will only take Ds. Can't see any reason to go over 65 since that will carry more than the GAWR anyway. Perhaps a previous owner put the Es on instead of Ds was just to keep from driving all the time at max PSI on the back tires. The spare is a D, probably from before.
I did learn a lot from getting it on the scales and asking about it here, that's for sure. I would never have known it was over its RGAWR and at or just over its GVWR. It has a towing hitch receiver, but I don't see how you could put any weight on it since the rig is already over its RGAWR.
Good reminder about the rim psi limit if ever intending to go even more above the RGAWR when towing, to exploit having Es instead of Ds. ( I don't intend to!) I wonder what those previous owners got up to in their day! Maybe that explains why it has Ride Rites. :)
