Even stock tires have more capacity than the stock wheels.
On what do you base that? (Not flaming, just asking)
...because as far as I have know, there are really no known specs of factory wheels as discussed here as nauseam...
I would tend to think that for legal reasons (if it ever push came to shove in a court) that truck mfgrs would take a position that wheels are only rated for as much as stock tire could handle (and no more.)
18 inch stock Continentals on Ford SRWs are max load 3760. Power dude noted that the wheels rating is 3590.
Still, it is rare for someone to have a wheel fail. Tires typically fail first.
