Subject:About Load Ratings On Wheels
From:Bruce Nadig
Date:Thu, 13 Oct 2005 09:45:15 -0500

I've got a question about load ratings on wheels. This thread is a very
specific question. I am not referring to tires. I am not asking about
experiences with vehicles other than Vanagons.

My question is:

Does anyone have any firsthand knowledge of a wheel failure on a Vanagon due
to overloading?

I am specifically talking about Vanagons. I am also talking about failures
due to an overload situation. I'd prefer not to hear about wheels that have
been drilled out to fit a Vanagon - I'm trying to eliminate variables here.

So, how about it? Any first hand knowledge?

Cheers,
Bruce
