what 2 ply means on the tire
1736916
2 ply tires means there are 2 plys of rubber on the tread portion of the tire (not for highway use).

it refers to the number of layers or "plys" of rubber make up the tire. Typically, the more plys, the better.

The 2-Ply means: when the tire is constructed the manufacturer lays down two different slabs of rubber.The first Ply can be made up of a combination of rubber and fiberglass or steel threads to give it strength and stability.The 2nd Ply is what the outside of the tire is made of; the rubber and tread that you see. A 2-Plytire is much stronger and will last much longer than a single Ply (1-Ply). It is worth the little extra you maypay for the 2-Ply. I hope this answer helps. - David

The 97s only carries a load range of "B", which is only a 4 ply tire. Load range C, D, and E are 6, 8, and 10 ply. If it were me, I would not put a 4 ply tire on the boat trailer.

The best way to fine out is to add all the plys together and that will give you the number of plys of a tire , like steel 2 ,polyester 2 , nylon 1 , sidewall 2, that gives you a total of 7 plys . Its marked on every tire made for the USA....

The stock tires on my zero turn were turf savers and they were 2 ply. The extra ply rating would only be an advantage if you are going to driving through areas where cut brush or sharp objects could punctured your tires. Or if you are going to reach really high speeds. I would bet to say your safe with 2 ply

they are 6 ply load range c mine says 1820 lbs. at 50 psi max if you get a bigger tire make sure your rims will take a higher pressure. john

Make sure the number of plys are enough for your requirements. http://www.millertire.com/products/lawn-garden-tires/26x12-00-12/26x12-00-12-carlisle-tru-power-4ply/I have a set of these on my weighed down cub cadet and they have been absolutely great so far. The 6 and greater ply of this tirenis commonly used on trenchers and on the off road forklifts used by many lumber yards for job site delivery. Those three wheeled beasts that hang on the back of the Lowes trucks...

Although I must admit that I am not positive, given how thin they are between the tread lugs, I would think they ae 3 ply. I will check the set I bought tonight. My first non XL set lasted almost 400 hors. The XL will carry a little heavier load, but I bought them because they has them and at the time they were slightly cheaper. 6 plys would ride more stiffly and they ride very softly.

Mine are 6 ply and 3 ply. I pull a 21 ft bass boat on a regular basis. These tires last forever in you rotate them.

There are bias ply. I have one on my Harley and it works just as good as Dunlop

That would be a 4 ply tire. 113T is the load index and sped rating. 2535lbs per tire at max psi and 118 mph

I have no idea about what ply the tires are, but they handle mud, snow and ice fine. I have had no problems with these tires.

Hello.The "102" refers to the load index (total weight capacity) of the tire. 102 = 1874lbs max load.Thank you,BWT

Sorry don't remember, I think 1 ply, but don't remember for sure. Couldnt afford it anymore, price got too high.

Previous answers are WRONG. These tires are the TL15703000, which are 8 ply and load range D, inflate to 65 psi max.I just got mine today. I took a chance and ordered them based on the model number. Great Deal!

Hello. The 'number' represents and load capacity of the tire and the 'letter' represents the speed rating. example: 103 = 1929lbs per tire T = 116MPH Thanks, BWT

This model covers both tires so you need 2, one for each side. There are other models that cover only one tire, so then you'd need 4.

It depends on what size you get. The smaller ones are 2 ply the larger ones are 4. Mine are 2 ply but they are definitely a very heavy tire. Get them, You won't be sorry. These things are awesome.
