Allroad Tires
One of my OEM Goodyear Wranglers has a bubble in at 25000 miles. The OEM tires were rated 97 H. How important is it that I duplicate that rating or if I were to get 4 new tires would a 95 H Tire be sufficient. Thanks.

Re: The 95H would work but I wouldn't go less than OEM
The 95H provides 1521 pound capacity at full inflation. The total tire capacity is only about 400 pounds over the GVW of the allroad. Most don't run tires at full inflation so the capacity is less. The 97H provides 400 pounds more capacity which to me translates into safety. My tire guy likes to put on 100+ rated tires on the allroad due to the weight. This stiffens the sidewalls and ride a bit.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR4&url=%2Ftires%2Ftiretech%2Ftechpage .jsp%3Ftechid%3D35">http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=35</a></li></ul>
