TK,

"Kelly Springfeild built for Discount tire 225 x70 R14's, rated for 1640 lbs. each @ 40 psi. They are 4 ply on the top and two ply of the sidewalls."

This might be a great tire .... Please help me fill in the blanks in the spec sheet.

What is the model info on this tire.

Is this a Passenger car or a LT tire (40 psi would indicate that it's a Passenger car tire)?

If it is a passenger car tire is the sidewall SL, XL or RF designation.
