I haven't checked with the tire guy yet and some have already given some tire option but any other things to look at or other tire sizes that might work considering I have St235/80R16(E). If I go with what Azdryheat has which is LT235/85R16(E) I loose capacity but with his numbers I'm still ok with weights and it fits since he has the same th. Like I said in my original post, I run light with just bicycles in the back so I weigh around 16.5k when loaded and taking pin weight into consideration I should be ok. Just so much information to take in about load capacity of Lt vs St. St is higher capacity but Lt are not speed limited like st so even though I go with a lower weight rated tire it should be stronger. Is this right to assume. Also I looked at tirerack and they give comparable tires to the 235/85. I know it depends on room on my th with the wheel wells and between tires but I saw a Lt265/75r16 as a option. Could this be a option? I know I want Lt's so that is certain but size now is what I need to work on excluding the $300 dollar ones. Looking more in the 150-200 dollar ones. Any things I'm missing.
