So, is a 6 Ply tyre sufficiant for an 8cwt? According to the table the max load per tyre is about 1000kg. 4x1000 is more than the weight of a C8 + 8cwt load....so sufficiant? Or should one calculate with 3 tyres, in stead of 4?
To add to the discussion I have looked at the old 9.00x13 tyres I have here.
Picture 1 and 2 show Firestone 9.00x13
marked "S-6" (????), max load 15cwt
No ply rating
Picture 3 and 4 show Dunlop GP 9.00x13
marked "S-6"...no other markings that seem to suggest a max. load
No ply rating
