One stays within ratings or justifies not doing so
OP...you will be OVER with that 5vr
In Washington State I never worried about being over the 8800 GVWR of our 2001.5 RAM. They "the state" licensed it to 12,000. I was never over the rear tire rating of 6830 pound. I was over the placard that listed smaller tires that the truck did not come with OEM giving the truck a 6084 RGAWR, however it had the optional OEM LT265/75R16E's. Dodge built it as a SRW 3500 with minimal 2500 numbers on the placard.

Chris, sounds like your 2001 2500 was the same as ours. Tow and camper packages no change on the VIN sticker still 8,800#, but truly a SRW 3500, which Dodge didn't offer in the 2nd Gens.
I run right at 10,000# on the TV and still within VIN sticker axle ratings, and well within the camper package 265/75-16E @ 3,415# ea., and don't need any bags or timbres.
