Again...out of my element, just trying to get an understanding of the passenger car load index rating. I understand sidewall rating for truck tires, ie c vs. e, in which case load amount usually correlates to wear amount and the stouter tire usually wears better, although a rougher ride. Now when it comes to passenger tires, in particular a 94 vs. a 96 rating (both are V rated rubber compunds)...is there enough of a difference in side wall support and tire construction to extend the life of the tire??? Or do passenger car tires not translate as such??? In my never ending world of cheapassness, I'm trying to determine if the extra $48/tire (same brand and series of tire) will be worth it in tire life or if results would be negligible.
