March MTD looks at LT load-carrying capacities

March 19, 2010

A light truck tire's load-carrying capacity is one of its most critical attributes, writes MTD contributor Kevin Rohlwing in the March issue of Modern Tire Dealer.

"LT tires are engineered to operate at maximum load for an indefinite amount of time," he writes. "In fact, every component of a light truck tire is designed with an extra safety factor to accommodate the increased stress that comes with higher loads and inflation pressures."
