Load ratings for tyres is very important, the manufacturer of the car specifies a 'load rating' based on the tyre size etc. If you don't maintain the correct rating for speed and load your facing potential problems with insurance if the worst was to happen. Load ratings are like speed ratings, you may never drive at 210kph but the cars tyres still must meet the manufacturers original specs. That’s the law!!
