First, I think the tires will be rated at 3250 each, for the 7500lb axle capacity that GM lists for SRW 3500s. Don't know where the 2601 comes from, but it is wrong.
Friend has a 3500 long box, SRW, and his 18s are 3250lbs.
Even at 3250/tire, the rear tires are going to be badly overloaded with a 4200lb pin weight.
