Doug, there are a few times where tyres are de-rated. One is where you have single wheels on twin axles where the suspension is not load sharing (the ratings of the tyres must be a least 20% more than the rating of the axle.) In your case, when wheels are used as dual wheels on a single axle the tyres are de-rated as shown in the figures you have posted.

Hi Dougwe
I would not have to much trouble driving the Colie and the Den down to the Reservation, no problems at all.

I have a wiegh bridge directly over the road from my house that I always use (cost is free...mates rates). With the ute and van loaded I drive onto the bridge and weigh the lot, drive forward untill back wheels are off bridge and take reading, unhook the van and take the weight off the ute with jockey wheel and take reading. ATM minus GTM gives ball weight.

Sounds like you just about got it by the short n ,,,,well you know, did you have a look at the tyres load capacity on the van ?
Woody
ok so I posted and then noticed that the thread went on to the second page
your tyres are all good your weights are fine as explained by PeterD so your can safely head of into the wild blue yonda and visit the twins home tribe in the outback.
Safe travels .
And yes you are still top of the class well done
