The guy made the right decision. I could see a few hundred, maybe up to 1000 lbs over occasionally, but not an extra 2500 lbs all the time.
Just the other day, I had an F250 (sagging in the rear with a massively large 5er behind it) pass me going at least 75 MPH. All I could think is "this guy must not have seen the video" :S
Good point!
Someone should post that the speed limit on most LT tires is only 65 MPH at the full weight rating on the tires. If you are doing 75 MPH, you need to derate the maximum weight capacity by 10% and increase the cold inflation pressure by 5 PSI. So those 4,000 pound tires are only rated at 3,600 pounds at 75 MPH.
