Not sure if your remark was meant for me due to it being right after my last opinion... meanings can get lost in the written word.
But a 2004 2500 Dodge I believe also has 17" rims. There really is no weight ratings on them that have been documented. One can only assume that they are rated for at least the weight capacity of the tires that were stock on the truck.
This means the wheels are rated for at least #3,197 assuming a Load Index of 121 for stock tires. You mention Toyo tires. What Load Index are they? I see you weighed your truck but what are the rears only carrying?
I am not flaming you nor I am I falling into you "gauge of what everyone thinks" but I have researched the $#!t out of the limitations of 17" wheels to find out the best for me. What I have found, based on my truck, that most folks who are running SRW 17" with large campers are woefully over any known wheel rating... AND I am not saying that you are in this group without any numbers to your specific rig.
I would love to see any documented wheel rating for the Dodge 17" rims that would change my known assumptions.
I agree with you that most 1/2T campers would be over, but the limitations of the 17" on SRW for us Dodge folks 'aint much better.
respectfully,
frank.
