    Ordered these tires from Sears and went to install them but found out they were E tires and not the C I thought they were. There is a restocking fee of 15% if I get a refund so my questions is, will there be a noticeable difference in ride quality as in stiffness. I've always went with C rated tires and prefer them. Sears says there wont be a difference but what I do know is one is 10 ply and the other 6 ply which makes one heavier too. I got a few days to decide what to do so I left them there for now. Tks TW

    E rated will ride rougher. If you are primarily driving on the road I would stick with C rated.

    Tks for the reply's. Because my TRD 4x4 OR DCSB MT6 rides so smooth I don't want to lose that ride. Costco has the C KO2 that I want but I still have to decide what to do with the $126.00 restocking cost at sears. Maybe sell those E tires on CL.
