I am looking at a Excursion with the V-10 that has the Toyo Wild Country load range C 6- ply tires on it. In the sidewall it says they are rated for 2,480 lbs. each. Well the vehicle weighs 7,500 lbs. stock with a full tank of fuel and me in it. In addition I am adding 1,500 lbs. so that will put me right up to about 5% below the limit of the tires. So I am wondering how close they rate their tires to the failure point. If the rear tires are right at their limit is this ok? Or is it like their limit is their failure point.?
The tires are brand new and I don’t really want to pay another $700 for tires on top of the already $16,200 I will own on the vehicle. This question is not in reference to a Jeep. It’s just a general question. I just posted it here because many people have been helpful on this forum so I figure I will get an answer. |

Re: Will load Range C 6-ply tires handle 9,000 lbs.?
i wouldnt worry about it to much i have load range c tires on my truck and I mainly use it to pull a 2000lbs car trailer with a 3500lbs car and prolly about a 1000lbs of spare parts tires and jack and tools in the bed. The only problem i got is because ym front springs are getting weak from my push bumper its starting to wear the inside of the tires a lil faster. O and by the way my truck is a 91 ford f250 ext cab long bed 4x4 with the 460 auto. the only thing special is it has stiffer rear springs to pull the trailer.
