Motorcycle tires load ratings?
How do you ride? Are you laid back, not pushing in the curves, not riding lots of miles? Shinko is good enough, especially if you do less than 1,000 miles a year. I ride over 5,000 miles a year, scrape the pegs on my cruiser, and I went with Metezler ME880. Expensive to buy, but cheaper than cheaper tires -- better performance, far more mileage.
I only use vermiculite for starting seeds. Compost alone fortified with slow release fertilizers and a mineral source should be all you need.
Never used Shinko so can't rate them myself and they get fair, good and not so good reviews. You pay your nickel and you take your chances.
