Hey once again, I've been hunting for tires lately, time to get the snow tires off now that we're well, WELL out of mother winters reach. I got idea from the site and other volks who put either the michelin LTX 's on or the Yokohama Y356, I wnat to put either one of these one preferably. People were all concerned about the load rating, and most of the responsed I received stated to go for a "D" rating and 8 ply sidewalls. I seem to feel that most of the responses I got were from people woho had westis, which are a hech of a lot heavier than my straight forward vanagon (got the weekenderbed though). I see the advantages of this, more stable ride, I have a thule adjenture roof BOX and a canoe so its more top heavy than anything. Anyway my question is do I need to go with the "D" load rating and the 8 ply sidewall, can I get away with something with a little less rating, is so h0w much less. jon 88 vanagon
