There appears to be a discrepancy between the print catalog specs. and the Heartland website specs. concerning the tires and axles available for Bighorns. The website for BH shows only E-rated tires being offerred yet there are 6K axles for the lighter rigs and 7K's for the heavier rigs. The print catalog does show G-rated tires being used on the heavier rigs, along with the 7K axles. My position is that you can't put E-rated tires on a 7K axle and say its a 7K assembly. The tires limit it to barely over 6K. G-rated tires would give 7500 lbs. carrying capacity, but the 7K axle becomes the limiting factor, making it a 7K system. Methinks there is a mismatch between the print catalog specs. and the website specs. Am I right or do all BH's, regardless of model, now come with E-rated tires as standard, mounted on both the 6K and 7K axles? Does getting the proper G-rated tires, regardless of which brand used, now require an "upgrade," at additional cost to the buyer?
