I,m changing out my ST235/80/16s for LT 245/75/16 outer diameter on the STs 30.8 LTs 30.47 I'm going with the BF Goodrich Comm TAs. The weight of the LT are 44lbs each STs are 36 lbs.
That particular change almost always requires new rims, because your ST tires probably came with 6.0" rim width and the LT245/75R16E has a rim range of 6.5" - 8.0". But, what the heck, if you're going to give up all that extra tire load capacity, not using the correct rim width is just another drop in the bucket of avoiding tire safety.
