Moral: always look for not only the size you need but close with at least the same load rating. I have seen a 20% difference in price just changing the size or aspect ratio of the same tire. My rule of thumb is that if you drop 10 in aspect then increase 10 in section width. e.g. go from a 225x70 to a 235x60 to a 245x50. Both the diameter and the load will stay about the same. Just make sure your rims are wide enough.
