Light Truck and Commercial tires are exempt from having to provide that
info AFAIK. Sometimes the info is provided but I don't think it is
required. The tread wear number is a consumer requirement and tires not
intended for consumer use don't have it?

The 185R14C and 195R14C are Commercial tires, that is what the C stands
for in 14C.

Tires Easy doesn't have the info, and the tire is not listed on the Nankang web site. Nankang doesn't even have this info for the tires they do list, as far as I can see. Maybe I'd have to find someplace that has one in front of them, and have them look on the tire. (Good luck with that, right?)
