P.S. — By the way, wasn’t suggesting that sometimes axles don’t exceed tire capacity. In my case, the rear is limited to 6,084 pounds due to tires, but axle is rated around 6,400 pounds.
Also, on...

I don’t necessarily agree with that logic/assumption because the lighter E-350s are rated even lower in spite of using the identical tires. Ford detail specs show the E-450 rear axle at 9,600...

blw2, I’m not sure we should rule out the benefits of C-rated “Commercial” tires even if his experience/experiment doesn’t work out well. There are other brands also, which may be more expensive,...

That doesn’t apply in my case.

These tires are rated at 3,750 pounds each for singles at 100 PSI, hence 7,500 pounds for front axle. The E-450 front axle is rated up to 5,000 pounds, so tire maximum rating exceeds that of axle by...
