For example, a light truck tire with a load index of 120/116 means a load capacity for a single tire of 3,086 pounds and a load capacity of 2,756 pounds for two tires. The reason the capacity for two tires is lower than a single tire is to make sure that the vehicle can continue...
tires will work on your particular car, use the tire load index chart to see how many pounds each tire can support. Multiply that by four (since your vehicle will use four tires). As long as that number is greater than the GVWR of your vehicle, those tires should work. If you think...
“However, the most accurate measurement from an engineering perspective is a Load Index, which relates to the maximum load-carrying capacities allowed at the speed indicated by the speed symbol,” explained David Crawford, head of truck tire development for commercial vehicle tires in North America...
The bumpy ground can somehow induce the tractor to vibrate, and in worse situations, the tires will lose adhesion to the road, which causes the tractor to slide, lose control, or roll over [7]. Therefore, considering as many environmental factors as possible in the evaluation of fatigue and...
