I ordered different tires Posted by MI-Roger [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Store won't sell me the tires I want, cheaptech ![]() |
After seeing that my old snow tires were over the 94 lower limit, I relented and found tires acceptable to me (brand, price, tread design, previous usage experience) that were not too much more expensive than the $72 Yokohamas.
Maybe the 94 load limit is not really rocket science. But then again, maybe it is far more important than I realize.
I had suspicions something was up when I saw the low price on the Yokohamas, and the limited sizes available. These tires must have limited applicability due to the low Load Rating, and are a older tire based on Yokos' model numbering. But when they immediatley tried to up-sell me at $50 per tire I felt I was being 'baited and switched' rather than being directed away from an unsitable tire for my car.
