  1. Afternoon all, I run a Yeti Monte Carlo, which has OEM spec tyres of 225/50/17 on a 94 load rating. The car needs new tyres soon. For reasons I can’t fathom, it is £45 less for a 98 load rated tyre than a 94, so a saving of almost £200 a set. Everything else about the tyre is identical (Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 2). I’m very tempted bu the 98s but also a bit nervous, particularly regarding ride comfort. My feeling is I will not really notice any difference compared with the 94s and I’ll have £180 in my back pocket. Am I overthinking this? Does anyone have any first hand experience of going to a higher load rating and regretting it for any reason? I would add that the current tyres on the car are Pirelli Cinturatos, which based on reviews seem like they may be a bit firmer than the Goodyears anyway, so maybe going to a 98 with the latter would not feel dissimilar anyway. I would appreciate any thoughts / experience.
