Did you get your tyres sorted, if not it might be sensible not to send the paperwork off to the dvla until you have.
The tyres must have a load rating of >50% of the axles plated weight for a single wheel axle irrespective of actual payload.
When I uplated my Crafter Dee Thorne specifically asked for photos of the rear tyres before sending me the doc pack I guess he likes to ensure the vehicle are legal beforehand!
It is one of the things that regularly gets checked if stopped at a police or DVSA checkpoint
My Crafter rear axle is plated at 2400kg hence typical dual rated 112/115 van tyres cover it as a 115 rating is 1215kg per corner for a single tyre axle
If my crafter was a dually then the lower 112 rating would have applied x4 so the rear axle could have been plated at 4480kg on the same tyres
