I apologize Mike... I guess I missed that post above... even when I went back and looked....

Therefore the question... if a tire is marked... LT235/85R16 LRG 14 PR Goodyear G614 RST Unisteel... is it for a trailer or light truck?
I would interpret this: LT235/85R16 LRG 14 PR as LT= Light Truck, LRG= Speed rating, Radial, Load range G. and 14 PR as 14 ply rating

I have G614's manufactured in 2013, put on my unit in 2013. I tried to take a picture but does not show well enough to be much help, therefore I will tell you what is marked on mine.

1) In larger letters G614RST with Unisteel beneath it.
2) Where you would expect to see the tire size it says LT235/85/R16 and Load Range G.
3) It also has 126L/123L - This is the load index (126) and speed rating (L) and represents single wheel and dual wheel ratings so that tells me 3750 single and 75mph rating and 3420 dual and 75mph rating.

There are also the DOT codes which tell where the tire was manufactured and other things.

I do not see any 610W or similar on my tires.

This tire is listed in the RV section of Goodyear website so I would assume it was designed for HD trailer and 5th wheel applications and not motorized vehicle application. Therefore IMHO it is a ST tire for all intents and purposes.
