Score one for the weight police :)
After several years of running the vision 19.5 wheels and hating the ride, i went with toyo open country tires that have the weight rating I needed. I did not look at the wheel rating though. 4 years ...

Agreed on using aftermarket wheels that aren't rated. If a factory wheel will do this over time, I can't imagine using an inferior wheel. This wheel F250 wheel has been in service for almost 10 years and 185,000 miles before it gave up. Not common but not unheard of either.
Also, those of you with Superduties who think your full size spare is good enough to carry a TC load, better check the warning stickers. I'm far from the weight police, but I'm not reckless either. When I went to put on the spare there was a sticker about not exceeding a certain speed and changing the wheel out asap. The tire is a normal E load range, but that wheel looks odd, maybe it isn't rated the same. Regardless, I ended up buying a matching OE wheel and tire. I ended up leaving the camper home that trip because of that spare, not willing to risk property and life over it.
