When they develop a tire they put an average rating on it to go with any car that tire might be put on. But thats why they tell you to follow your vehicle manufactor because they don't know what the weight of the car will be, is it will be RWD, FWD, etc.
ok.... so. the yaris is 2300lbs. how many cars are there out there that weigh less than 2300lbs which MIGHT run these same tires? I have a hard time thinking that weight is such a big factor on these tires when coupled with a yaris. Maybe the 14" variant is different, I dunno... but the 15" tire could possible find itself of heavier sedans, or even light duty trucks I imagine. which could weight as much as 1000lbs more than the yaris.
