Something to think about..LT or ST tires
I think all or most tire stores are watching more about what tire/size that came on the item that the tires are being put on and not wanting to stray from that because of the liability that is involve...

As some have stated, some tire dealer won't deviate from the stock recommended tire size or design. I'm just saying that it is probably a liability issue as to why they won't.
Everyone do as they please but I prefer not to take the chance of a possible legal issue because I used LT tires on an RV that came with ST tires and marked on the spec tag as such, but I do make sure I have good quality tires to prevent possible blowouts.
I want and will always use ST tires on my toy hauler simply because I feel that what I read about tire design that the ST tires stiffer sidewalls are designed for the side loading or sliding sideways as you have to do with a tri-axle trailer making turns.
But again that's my opinion and everyone can and will do as they see fit.
All I wanted to do was to get the thought out there because of the possible liability issue in our sue happy society.
We will be sure to waive when we drive by you jacking your rig up to fix a flat.
Make sure you honk once so I know its you!! :)
