Mitch,
If you have paid for an 8K plate, that is ALL you get here in washington state. If you pay for the next higher wt, that would be 10K, then 12, 14......in 2K increments, that is what the LEO's will enforce, as long as you are under the 500 lbs per inch width of tire per FBL's. my C2500 has an 8K plate. I am good to 8K lbs max, NOT the door sticker of 8600 lbs. I can get an 8K plate, as the truck is 4800 empty, or 7200 lbs at 1.5 times tare.

Thanks for the clarification. I must have misunderstood this same discussion many moons ago about it, but in the end, it's all good! :)
