Subject:Re: Sears Load Range C Tire on sale

The P in P205/75R14 means passenger.  That roughly means low load range, soft
sidewalls, and a low maximum pressure.  This tire's max inflation pressure is
only 35, and my Vanagon requires 39 front, 48 rear.

This isn't the tire to use.  This same tire in the LT 195/75R14 (at $56.99)
is a better choice with load range C and 50 psi max.  Load range C can be at
the lower limit of what our vans need, so even this one may be suspect.

Look it up as item #09534568000
