Your using 15" tires. They have a higher rating than the 14" tires toastie reported having. For the 14" tires the load limit is closer to 1800# each. I'm making the assumtion that dry weight on the Caravel is just shy of 3,000# so figure ~500# or so of "stuff" and you're getting close enough to the rated limit that it seems prudent to get all the load carrying capacity possible from the tires by inflating to max psi.

Toastie ST215 75R14 = 1870 per tire or 3740 total capacity
Clancy_boy ST225 75/R15 = 2150 per tire or 4300 total capacity
The 15" tires give you a much more comforable margin.
