Opinion -- don't do it.
I won’t reccomend running over the tires’ rated weight limit, but will say I’ve had zero issue running tires at their rated limit +/- for many miles, hot cold, rough smooth, creeping up a trail or 80mph down the freeway.
Yes you can put your own factor of safety on the tire limits, but the mfg already put one there.
As far as being overloaded, if the truck is sitting level and you’re not skeered to drive it, you’re not overloaded. Now adding suspension or sway bar can/will improve the carrying or stability. It’s up to you.
