Current rear passenger for me would be the new spare. Just check for damages ;-)

I agree, but the message I have entered is too short so I must lengthen my message to at least 10 characters.

I had 15k miles on Goodyear Duratrac lt245/75r16 when I pulled into a discount tire a few weeks ago for an air check after a three day 2000 mile drive. The tech pulled over a manager and they pointed out sidewall defects on all 4 tires. They warranty replaced all four with bfg a/t in the same size they had in stock.

They only have a 2k load rating. Probably should never been put on your van in the first place. You may want to check the load rating on the new tires they put on.

Per Goodyear they’re 3042lb rated.

The "LT" got me so I looked them up and got that number, but yes the manufacturer has them as E rated / 3000lbs. Amazon has them as 2000lbs load rating

Sorry for confusion.
