OK, I stand corrected. My tires read Michelin MXT 205/70R14 Radial 99S Tire plies as follows. Tread: Two Rayon + 1 Pplymide + 2 Steel Sidewall: Two Rayon Tire sidewall marked - "Reinforced" Tire Pressure - 50 PSI I could not find a load rating on this tire unless the 99S is some kind of rating. The sidewall on this tire is considerably stiffer than any tire I have previously driven on. When I had them installed, the performane went up considerably.
