Subject:Re: Tire Side wall info request

This is a very helpful resource especially with regard to Load capacity.  It filled in a lot of gaps. 

I still need to look at some the links Jim Arnott sent me but I’m getting a good handle on this now. 

Now for some real world info on the larger wheel and tire sizes. 

Luckily I have time to figure this out! 

If I had to select a tire right now I’d be looking for a 
225/60 r17  99 load capacity.  And I’d like a 51 or higher max pressure capacity  this would be a LT tire and likely about a D .

If I could do the 225/65 R 17 I’d prefer that 

Now to go find out just how old my tires are.  Just need some eyes to read the tire. 

I should have a couple years to figure it out, but if the right tires come my way who knows!
