15x4 to small for a full size truck?

I am going to a 5x4.75 lug patern and was wondering if it would be safe to run a 15x4 rim up front or should I go bigger?

do you know what the rated weight per rim yours is rated at? The rims I am looking at are rated at 1600 pounds each, I would think 3200 pound of support should be good for the front huh?

Which brand are those, mines are Bogarts which are for track use only but I still would use them on the road, not sure on the rating for mine but yours should be ok.

Shouldn't be a problem. Even figuring for a 60/40 weight difference (front to rear) it is less than 1000 for each front wheel.
