Ok, thanks. So, I’m 200 lbs shy of the 10% cushion, but that rule didn’t apply to my rig, but with axles that were derated for cheap 10 ply Marathons, I’ve got tires that give me an additional 660 lbs of weight capacity over the Marathons that came on the rig, and in over 6 years running the G614’s, I have had no issues with the tires. There was no recall on my rig to replace the tire label for the 10% rule either.
