I guess there's still one thing I'm wondering about.

Padgett, you're running Load Range D tires and a wheel rated at 2150 lbs which is clearly enough as that exceeds the axle limit of 3500 lbs. However, fireman you're running Load Range E tires with a limit of 2600 lbs, 2 extra belts, and a rim rated at 2600 lbs.

Is there an benefit to running the E rated tires & rims vs. the D rated ones? I believe the E rated tires run at 80 psi, so do you run them at 65 psi for a smoother ride?

Thanks in advance.
