My well used Bronwchurch (and I think I am the 4th owner) has rust spots, but I will tell you that I weigh 280 and I was ON the rack, with a full size spare tire, standing up there and wrestling with getting the tire in place, and saw NO issues with the raingutters or anything.
I am going to pick up 4 more legs hopefully and then I'll fab some extra mounts so I can go 5 feet on either side...then I should be able to really ease up the per leg weight.....
