My right front seat weighs significantly more than the left front.... [bighmmm]

Passed a D4 owner a few days ago driving around in a hire car after hitting a pot hole which blew out two tyres. He's waiting on them to be freighted in...
20 inch of course. No problems with my 18s.
Just finished the Karunjie track from Wyndam to GRR. Was great fun. Bit technical.

Going back to the OP, I'd rather tow than overload my vehicle. Overloading the vehicle does all sorts of negative things to it, which catch up with you in time. Towing transfers considerable weight from the vehicle to the trailer or van being towed, and so the vehicle is better able to cope with the tow. That's my theory anyway.

Even a small trailer is a great way to take the load off the truck and you have also the ability to carry a few extra "Luxuries" that make the experience of a trip away in the Bush that much better.
Not to mention it is a better option to cart your firewood in the trailer than on the roofrack.
Trailers ARE a PIA to cart around But at least you are not overloading your vehicle and you can always unhitch it at camp and venture off exploring the area without it.
