Weight Capacity Question...

Car: 2005 - Station Wagon. E320 4Matic

I occasionally use my car to transport my equipments.
Will using this vehicle with airmatic shock to transport about 450 Lbs (204.1Kg) of loads cause the shocks to go bad faster?

I regularly transport about 300 Lbs (136.1 Kg)...once or twice a week

Thanks for your input..
