Re: switch 4500 with RIP and load balance
If two 4500 are connected, and these switches have IP interfaces created in it, just one of the routes will work at one time, regarding its lowest interface ID. Even if you setup the metric as the same in both routes, only one will appear on the routing table.
Actually, there is no reason to use Layer 3 load balance between two 4500 switches; if the topology has three switches, so it would start to make sense. Do you have only one physical path connecting these switches? If yes, the chosen route will be the PVID of the connection. If you have two physical paths, why not use link-aggregation feature?
Please, clarify us about your topology and your needs.
Regards.

Re: switch 4500 with RIP and load balance
RIP isn't much sophisticated as routing protocol, it's easy to use and implement, but does not have features like load balance. At other hand, using static routes will be the solution only if you have two source addresses and two destination addresses.
