Why might new rims have to be installed to increase the load?

Since the rear axle can now be subjected to a higher load, both the rim and the tire must have the necessary load capacity. This must be verifiable. If there is no report from the rim manufacturer, a new wheel/tire combination with a suitable certificate must be installed.
The load capacity of the tires and rims must be half of the intended axle load.
