Not sure this is accurate...I always thought the dual rating meant as in a dually setup????? Why would load rating vary on a vehicle with two axles over a vehicle with one axle. This would effectively mean, for my application, that there are NO G rated tires I can find in 16" that would be suitable for use on my 7000 lb axles...which I have 2 of. Just does not make sense to me.
When a little math is used to see what a safe load capacity would be for LRG G614 tires on two 7000# axles using the recommended 12% reduction by GY you are good to go at 13200# GAW. That’s with all tires aired to 110 psi.

On Edit: Remember, that is a tire manufacturer's recommendation and they are not responsible for setting vehicle tire pressures, the vehicle manufacturer is.
MAN...all well and good, but just how under tired was I with the load range e phony rated Duro tires. That truly is scary. No wonder there are so many tire failures.....
