Points well taken and considered. My Carlisles are rated at 2024, 81 MPH and 65 lbs. Big improvement over the C rates. They also run cooler. So I'm happy.

Happy is good. Thumbs Up

As I'm boon docking I'm always dragging around more load than most, I'm within a couple hundred pounds on the 3500 lb axle rating, so I'll take any additional safety margin I can get...

Absolutely agree with your decision. I am not a boondocker, I went from bondocking to the Pod, I'm a full service camper:)
