…LT-Metric and Flotation Light Truck Tires Load Range Abbreviated Max Load Pressure Load Range B (LRB) 35 psi (240 kPa)*** Load Range C (LRC) 50 psi (350 kPa)*** Load Range D (LRD) 65 psi (450 kPa)*** Load Range E (LRE) 80 psi (550 kPa)*** Load Range F (LRF) 95 psi (650 kPa)*** ***Industry standards…
…term for load capacity ratings on heavy duty tires used on 3/4-ton and one-ton pickups and SUVs. * 2 ply = Standard Load * 4 ply = Extra Load * 6 ply = Load Range C * 8 ply = Load Range D * 10 ply = Load Range E For more information on this topic, take a look at "Load Range E 10 Ply Tires…
…multiple load ranges. The appropriate load range is identified immediately following the size's rim diameter in Tire Rack's descriptions. ST-metric sized special trailer service tires will be branded with their load range (load range D or LRD) on their sidewalls and list their appropriate load range…
…frame. If drivers suspect their load nears/exceeds the GVWR, it requires a trip to a public scale to weigh the loaded trailer. If found overloaded, it is necessary to reduce the load in the trailer. If drivers are considering upgrading their tires to a heavier load range that allows higher inflation…
…the following list: * Load Range C (LRC) - 50 psi (350 kPa)* * Load Range D (LRD) - 65 psi (450 kPa)* * Load Range E (LRE) - 80 psi (550 kPa)* * Load Range F (LRF) - 95 psi (650 kPa)* *Industry standards specify selected large LT tire sizes be designed with reduced maximum load pressures To learn…
…Standard Load tire has more than enough capacity. * Will an LT Load Range D (8 ply) or Load Range E (10 ply) tire provide any benefit? No, the LT tire will hurt ride quality with its reinforced carcass, lower fuel economy and its heavier rotational weight. As an example, each 275/65-18 LT Load Range…
…such as black with spot milling, chrome plated and bright PVD, WORX provides different options for light trucks and SUVs. Guaranteed fitments ranging between 18" and 20" diameters with some models available in 16" and 17" diameters offers drivers multiple sizing options. A…
…and shortest stopping distances. However, all four were able to beat the figures of any all-season tire. Before winter arrived in the Midwest, we loaded up the tires and went to a winter test facility in Sweden. While there, we measured each tire's ability to accelerate and brake in light snow,…
…into the alphabet you go, the higher the load rating. The letter replaces the old ply rating system with a load range E being equivalent to a 10 ply. Since light truck tires are often available in multiple load ranges, the appropriate load range is identified immediately following the size's…
…Load Range C used in conjunction with LT-metric tires. Euro-metric Commercial Vehicle tires typically use high tire inflation pressures and are rated to carry more load than the dimensionally equivalent LT-metric sized tires popular in North America. Even traditional LT-metric Load Range F tires in…
…Our tire shaving service ranges between $25 and $35 per tire. Like many high performance parts, high performance tires will last longer if properly broken in. The first time Track & Competition DOT tires go into service is very important. All tires deflect under load and their tread rubber…
…type pressure gauge, the average pressures you check should be in the middle third of the total gauge range for the greatest accuracy. The range of pressures most often required for standard load automotive tires is between 28 and 35 psi. The Intercomp 4" Deluxe Air Pressure Gauge is accurate…
