I only ask as we have 1800 on the rear axel running on Disco steel wheels on our D2?

Andy,
The wheel rating has no significent bearing on total axle weight. These vary depending on model. Im running wolfs on my 90, but I dont get 2200kg/corner.

130's and 110HD's run Wolfs so you can see where the numbers match up. not sure how these compare to your D2 specification, but I would assume your close to or on your limit with that weight.
