Does the size nomenclature start LT? You failed to provide the full size nomenclature so that makes it a bit difficult to provide fact based answers.

EDIT: Also, Tireman, if you would pleas, comment, if you have an opinion as to what the letters on the sidewall mean in my attached photo (" LT Radial" ) thanks.
Thanks. It helps to know the tire we are talking about. In Europe they do not use P, LT or ST nomenclature so the correct way to describe this tire would be 205R14C the "c" stands for commercial
Since the LT is not used in Europe I suspect it was added for marketing in the US.
This Load Range D tire has a stated max load or 2271 at 65 psi (note the odd pound, the result of metric to SI conversion)so it looks like a good option for trailer, and LT users that need a 14" tire.
