Austone for 100 bucks

Unionjk and chromo. Sorry for hi-jacking this thread but I have a new Austone car tire for sale for the 1500. I bought it here in the states for my 1800 before I new it would not fit the 1800. I paid 152.00 dollars plus shipping so if anyone wants to give me 100.00 dollars plus shipping let me know via a pm. send me your zip and i'll get a shipping quote. The tire was mounted on the 1800 rim but would not fit under the bike. It's brand new with no damage.

I will be picking up an Austone tire in the UK to bring back with me to CA next month, since they are only $80.00 over there and over $185.00 here it seems like a good idea to me.
My question is this, I can get the 98Q load rating (1500 pound) or for three dollars more the 112Q (2465 pound).

Would the stronger tire be a good idea or is that stiff a tire likely to create another issue on the back of my bike? Obviously only an experienced darksider would know whether a tire that might have some flex is better than a stronger tire with a heavier load range.

Both tires are the same dimensions and speed range and are 6 ply.
