Re: [MBZ] load range

Looking at truck tires, says I need load range E on my truck. Right now its got 265 75 16's I believe on it. Calls for 245's instead. On tirerack, when changing to 265 instead of 245, seems the tires are actually a little cheaper, but dont say they are load range E. Is the load range have t
