That information is written right on the sidewall of the tire.
It's printed on the side of every tire.
H is the load range of the tire which indicates the ply. H is a 16 ply tire.
The load range indicates the ply rating of the tire or the number of plys under the tread. A = 2 ply B = 4 ply C = 6 ply D = 8 ply E = 10 ply F = 12 ply G = 14 ply H = 16 ply J = 18 ply L = 20 ply M = 22 ply N = 24 ply This has a direct relation to the Load Index which tells you the weight the tire can carry. The more plys the more weight the tire can carry.
A ply.
The load capacity of a tire is indicate by the star rating (in case of radial tire) and the ply rating (in cse of bias tire).
Radial ply tires and tubeless tires are made from rubber, fabric, and steel.
It is the internal component of the tire, it a nut shell its the inner strength of the tire.

Yes, it does. Plies affect the flexibility of the tire as you steer.
120 - 140lbs., depending on the specifics of the tire.
Instead of using steel belts (the way a radial tire does), the tire is entirely rubber.
Radial tires are worlds beyond bias ply tires. In radial tires, the steel chords are placed in a criss-cross pattern. Whereas bias ply tires are placed flat across the face of the tire. Bias ply tires are much, much harder for the engine to turn and are much harder for the suspension to compensate for. Bias ply tires are almost no longer used. That goes for America at least.
