Years ago I bought a 1/4-ton trailer, but I didn't want to tow it until I'd dealt with the tires and bearing, so I rented a bigger trailer to haul it in. The load on my VW Squareback was ~50% greater than the loaded 1/4 ton trailer would have been. I made it home, but that was the last gasp for the engine in the car.
