15\" Wheels or 16\" Wheels - Again!!

No, I don't need to know if 15's will fit on a D60 - we've been through that too many times already!!

My question is that I've been looking at the wheel load ratings on the 15" steelies and they're kinda low! Like 1500lbs or so! The 16x8 & 16x10 Mickey Thompson II's & the Eagle are in the high 2000 # - low 3000 # range.
Should I skip the 15's and go with the safety margin of the 16's?? The main reason I wanted 15's was for both tire selection and the price of 15" tires vs all others.

Thanks

Hey Brian,
How about the Eaton or Bart type wheels?
