My current tires are load range c. I read an article on etrailer.com that stated that the axle capacity is more important than the load range of the tire (or that was my newbie interpretation of it). In other words it may not matter if your tires can handle more load if your axle cannot. How do I know what my axle capacity is? (My TM is in storage, so I can't go out and look.) I have a 2002 with 14 inch tires. We'd like to replace with better than what we currently have if possible. Or is load range c perfectly adequate?
