Ive searched but can only see ob related tyre replacements.
We have a 2012 17.56.1 dual axle with the GT Radial ST-6000 185R14C 104/102N tyres which are way out of date and I've noticed cracking on the sidewalls. Doing a trip in Jan (if Dan lets us) and dont want to risk it.
My question is on the load rating, do I need to stick with the 104/102 rated ST-6000 tyres as these are pretty specific, or can I fit an easier to source LT tyre like a Hankook 185R14C 102/100R (VANTRA LT RA18 8PR M+S)
Does the drop from 104/102 to 102/100 make a difference legally, is it still in spec?
Pics for reference, thanks..
