I have an 03 F250 club cab Laramie with long bed and the infamous 7.3L diesel with 85k original miles on it. I just purchased a 2017 Dutchmen Denali that weighs about 10k dry. My truck has the original 16 inch wheels and older dry rotted tires. I purchased some Mayhem aftermarket wheels in 18 inch as the 16 just seem too dang small. The tires I have now are 265 75 16 and I want to go with 305 65 18 tires which will be exactly the same size sidewall but a little wider by an inch and since the wheels are 2 inches taller so will the whole wheel/tire setup giveing my truck a 1 inch lift. My question is I know I need an E rated tire for the heavy towing I will be doing but what experience do any of you have running an all terrain tire. Will they overheat etc? Should I not get an all terrain tire? I would love some experienced input. Thanks for any help.
Laramie?
