I went to Sears yesterday to check out the Yokohamas, but they
didn't have any of the Y370's in stock. Looking in their book, I don't
see any LT rating on the Y370's, although the load rating for them is
more than adequate (like 1874 for the 225/75-15 I wanted for the rear
and only slightly lower for the 205s for the front). My question is: Are
these truly stiff enough in the sidewall, and can I run them at 48lbs
pressure?
