Never used the C designation I guess as all my tires were HD which started at E and higher
I always thought Commercial was 14 ply and up, not pickup tires. All my 19.5 were that
Brother blew out a few on his new rig until he went to 14 ply, just wasn't enough tire and got very hot. He did get his money out of his road side service however but he really didn't enjoy the wait time on the side of the road
the new load rating is interesting and I have 113 rated on my light weight F150. Going to be a learning curve for us grey beards. They will probably start messing with the 22.5's load ratings as well
