My guess is that the tyre guy would be breaking the law if he fitted illegal tyres so ask if he will guarantee the tyre is legal ;)
Cheers Gipsy :D although I'm sure somebody will challenge that :lol: even Einstein wasn't certain of his theories.

Cheers Gipsy :D

The problem is that the tyre placard shows I can have them as the 109 rated BFG meet the axel requirements but I am pretty sure in the owners manual it states 112 load rated. :?:

Might take the owners manual in too and as you said get them to provide guarantee it.

I would go with the placard. Owners manual may have been switched out from different vehicle. If you have a GVM upgrade though, it would be reasonable for the load rating of the tyres to increase accordingly.

Claimed 3.5tonne. Normally far less once you’ve loaded the vehicle and accounted for accessories, and 3.5tonnes really only adds 350kg to the rear axle loading anyway.
