How does the additional load affect axle loads and tires?

Before ordering, please check whether the selected weight variant and the permissible axle and trailer loads really correspond to the intended use. In many cases, the axle loads do not increase when the load is increased without technical changes, which means that the original tire-rim combination can continue to be used because the requirements for the load capacity or load index do not increase. On the other hand, in order to utilize the payload reserve gained through the additional load, particular attention must be paid to the positioning of the load in the vehicle in order not to exceed the permissible axle loads.
