The guys there just gave me a look of utter disbelief because my old tires were basically racing slicks, but when the roads are always dry and clear, there isn't much risk with slicks...
    I was actually planning on going with the dynapros, for the low cost and milder road manners, but the wife had other plans and surprised me with new tires (no complaints).

    Now for the life of me, I can't imagine why discount would have sold my wife a load range E duratrac for a Nissan Xterra, but I promptly had them switch out for C's. I assume they wanted to sell a person that didn't know any better, a more expensive tire. Good on discount as a company for making it right with no questions asked, but shame on the salesman.

    Safety in vehicles is a universal language. Even shitty non-Tacoma ones.

    I've had sales people at tire stores tell me it didn't matter. When I demanded Load C & explained the difference between a 6ply & a 10ply tire I think they got the point.

    Perhaps is was trailer tires I'm recalling but unless it actually says 10-ply on the sidewall, many load range E tires now are not actually 10-ply. Better materials is what I've been told.

    It's technically a '10 ply rating' but newer materials and design may not require 10 full ply as long as it makes the grade in testing and such.
