Good point jimlin, but to ease the OPs mind, I’ve been hauling a lot more camper than the Cirrus on a shortbed with those same OE 20s for a few years now.

Assume a 3500lb wheel rating, car mfgs are not going to put out anything that doesn’t have a HUGE factor of safety for liability purposes alone.

I’ve personally done waaay worse things to wheels thanbeing a couple hundred lbs over rating. Not reccomending it to others, ratherststing there little real world concern here, within reason.
