LSW tires are technically VF tires. LSW stands for "Low Sidewall" which means the sidewall height of the tire is shorter than a typical tire. LSWs are unique to Goodyear. VF stands for "very increased flexion" which means the tire can carry 40% more load than a standard radial tire or carry the same load as a standard radial tire at 40% less pressure.
