While there is no industry-wide
definition of Load Range, truck tires are frequently
marked with ply rating and equivalent Load Range. These markings are used
to identify the load and inflation limits of that particular tire, when
used in a specific type of service.
The speed rating
is the maximum service speed of a passenger car tire. Light
truck tires are not speed rated. Here are a list of Goodyear's passenger
tire rating indicators and their mile-per-hour equivalents. This rating
system applies to all tire markers. |
