I think I heard somewhere that if the trailer is too much out of level it can get a ticket. You might want to put a lift kit on your trailer, too. I don"t have any numbers, but would be concerned that altering the tires and suspension would actually decrease the capacity. Another thing I just noticed today. I was meeting a F150 with a lift kit, and wide tires. The tires extended almost as far as the mirrors. The snow accumulation down the road left enough room to meet traffic, but he couldn"t get to the right enough to meet me, and I had to edge into someone"s driveway so he could get by. Also, a month or so ago I saw a Ford with extra wide tires, but only yhe inside edge was touching the road because they wore out the ball joints. The outside edge of the tires were so far off the road that you could slide your fingers under them. I know Chevy"s have a taller steering knuckle, so the ball joints are farther apart, but I would wonder how the wider tires will affect the ball joint life.
