Ron answered; >Based on VW and U. D.O.T. standards, the minimum load index is 95 for an >light-truck (LT) rated tire, or 99 for a passenger-car tire. OK, so are the Sigma Shadow 95T 205/70R14 tires that Mordo is talking about LT or car tires? Either way the 1521 lbs. maximum load should be very close. George '85 Westfalia |
