Rear Axle Weight
As with most larger class C's or B+'s, the rear axle weight limit is almost maxed out when you buy it new and before you put anything into it. My question is, would I increase the weight limit by rep...

"Gross Axle Weight Rating is the rated load-carrying capacity of an individual axle and wheel assembly. (It represents the load that may be steadily sustained by the components in the system; i.e., tires, rims, hubs, bearing, axles, brakes, suspension, sub frame, etc. with the GAWR limited by the components with the lowest working rating".
Tires alone may or may not increase a vehicles rear axle ratings.
Much depends on the rear axle type/brand/rating the chassis maker is using.
The axle manufacture may have a 18k rating but the chassis maker may use a lower 12k lb rear axle package.
And your chassis builder may have a uprate option with higher rated tires/wheels and suspension package.
Your rv manufacture and or the chassis mfg can help you there.
