Type-c van tyres

Why does the tyre have two different load ratings?

The first load index indicates the maximum load approved for a single fitting. The second load index indicates the maximum load approved for dual fitting (four tyres on the rear axle).

Is the C index marking necessary?

There's no difference between 195/50 R15C 104R and 195/50 R15 104R, only the load index is important. If your tyres don't have a C rating but have the correct load rating for your utility vehicle, then you can drive on them all the same. It's the same tyre.
