Re: Load weight tire rating

Look for the gross vehicle weight rating, usually referred to GVWR. I think it's a sticker near the driver's door somewhere. Divide that number by four and you'll get a good minimum weight rating for a tire. Anything over 1200 lbs. should be good, under that would be risky unless you never pack your car with things/people.
