OK,now for my $1.98:
 A good friend of mine works as a tire designer for Dunlop,and he assures me
that a REINFORCED tire only differs in that it has more plies in the sidewall
area-preferably a min. of 2 plies.The 'reinforced' nomenclature is apparently
just an old term still in use by some tire companies. So,carry on with the
multitude of tire choices, just be sure the ply rating,and weight rating is up
to par.This DOES include most LT tires ! Have Fun !!
