    Taking a survey on tire load limits, need feedback.

    Just wondering. Could you guys look at your tires and tell me their " load limit number". It's on the sidewall, something like 95,98,103 etc. This is for all 740, 750 owners. My neighbor and I are having a discussion. Thanks for any reply.

    My snows (235/50R18 Blizzak WS80s on front 18x8 M pars) have a 101 load rating (they're XL rated). Car is an 01 740i Sport. Haven't figured out my summer setup for sure yet since buying the car, so I can't answer for those.
