You don't want to go less on the load rating - The numbers... (from what was originally on your car, which might not be what is on it now).…

My comment was accurate at the time I made it (and my order has since been dispatched). But yeah, now they are out of stock.

Argh. So tempting, but i have already spent enough money this weekend
