I used the 17.5 Sailuns at the 4805 rating and never had a problem before trading for current unit. I would get them again. Unless you have a real need for the extra capacity, I would not get 6000 tires. But I don't think you will hurt the suspension if you use them, especially with the Morryde.
If you have 14k potential on the axles with 6k tires--gives you 2500lbs/tire overcapacity.
With the 4800 tires, 1300lbs overcapacity.
I think the lesser tire is plenty, but no harm in the higher rated ones.
Might ask MR their opinion of the tires with their suspension....
