I have a '96 Dakota with P215/75R14s. Someone is trying to sell me 4 Pathfinder radial ATR tires, but I don't know if I should. First of all, I have not heard of Pathfinder ATR tires, and secondly I know virtually NOTHING about tires. What do the following sticker designations mean? The sticker reads: LT235/75R15; 104/101Q; Load Range; C; 152 - 87; Radial Ply, polyester cord body plus steel belts; TBLS; OWL.
THANK YOU
