That weight difference is about the same as a fat bloke.

so i ask you, do your alloys snap in half when you give a fat mate a lift ??? Has anyone ever had an alloy snap when loading up a car with thin people ??? Have your alloys ever snapped when you go camping and your cars loaded up with gear ??? Do show cars snap alloy wheels when they're loaded up with ICE, Fibreglass, leather n whatever else goes in it ???

If i had a flatbed van and i was loading it up with bricks and cement, i would see your point, but as it is, its ok.
