What difference what his tire raltings are now? For the reasons I stated in the previous post. The weakest link will be his axle. 5200 pounds is all his axle is rated for. That's not our decision to make. It was the vehicle manufacturers and they certified it on the vehicle certification label. Again, ANY tire that equals or exceeds his axle rating is plenty. Same as before, not our decision. You have argued agains this for years, but ST tires get their rating at a much lower speed rating than LT tires. I understand you refuse to accept it, but a 3042 load rated LT tire would be more than acceptable for the OP. The tire industry is 100% behind the vehicle manufacturer on that subject and will not use less than what was certified as appropriate for that vehicle.
