Also, I looked at the OP and researched the load numbers. Again it WON'T matter due to the fact that each tire at 96 is capable of 1565lbs, so x4 and that gives you a total load capacity of 6260. Gross vehicle weight on our car is 3232. max payload on our cars if im not mistaken is around 600lbs? I am kindly stating sir that you are incorrect when referencing passenger car tires to sportscar tires.

As i stated, my .02. Take it or leave. Manufacturer specs is what they are for a reason. If you don't like it, you can find a shop that doesn't care either. Good thing there isn't any extra forced pushed onto the tires when you hit potholes, bumps, dips, or lips in the road that cause extra compression on your tires in quick bursts....... Lucky..... Kinda like saying, a 200 lb man jumping is only landing at 200lbs of force.
