It would be interesting to put one on an ATL brake tester and see what the axles actually weigh.
My car comes in at Front 320kg rear 300kg total 620kg as made but the declared weights on the IVA form were 450/450/900 so nothing should be overloaded.

These numbers are up to us at the end of the day and if we wanted to put 550/550/1100 we could. If a car is reaching the 450/450 range its probably been built to cope with a lot more anyway.
