Today's tire thread - Haul'n it

[outlawbusa]

I always run a load range E 10 ply tire on my trucks because my trailer is about 10,000 lbs with a 1300 lb tongue weight. I went up a couple sizes on one of my trucks and want to do the same with the other truck, however I can not find a load range E tire I like in the needed size.

I was able to get a set for the 16 inch wheels but not the 17 inch wheels.

Anyway, some of the load range D tires seem to have a comparible lb rating on them. I really like the **** Cepek FCII which I ran on my Jeep and had great luck with them, but didn't have 3/4 ton + tow vehicle weight pushing down on them. They only come in a load range D in the larger sizes.

My concern really is sidewall flex. Do you all tow with a load range D tire and do you notice much of a difference?

Here's the DC FCII tire I have ran before and would like to put on the truck. (load tange D)

If I drive to the Bash do you think Wheeler's can install a set of E's two at a time~?~

I'm taking everyone's opinion into consideration and ordering a set of all terrain Shinkos
