That's per tire, so that's roughly 9600 pounds max if evenly distributed across the vehicle, which it is not.

The curb weight is 5705 I think...so:

5705/2 = 2852.50
Hitch weight 1040
Total on rear 3892.5 (1946.25 per tire (Rear))

This doesn't include driver/passengers, gear in bed, loading the trailer etc. so you will be getting close. Personally, I would upgrade to an LT "E" rated tire.
