[QUOTE="Superiorsystem, post: 1877412, member: 46350"] Thank you Wheelman55, very informative video. Towing capabilities of the truck compared to the rear axle and the tire load can be rather confusing. But if I understand it right, (per the video) the Gen1 raptor rear axle or GAWR is 3700. My Raptor is 6000 lbs so roughly 3000 of the weight is on the rear axle. I use a 700 lbs weight distribution hitch which puts me right at the 3700 GAWR. Class C ko2's are 2535 x 2 on rear axle = 5070. So am I right in assuming that the C load rating of the bfg ko2's are in fact adequate to tow the 8000lbs the Gen1 Raptor is capable of towing? Sorry for the amateur questions, I am new to towing, this is my first truck and the first set of new tires I am purchasing for it. [/QUOTE]
