Tire recommendations for 5th wheel

Does anyone one know if a light truck tire is recommended instead of the tires that come from the factory. I have been told that I should consider a light truck tire.
  • Personaly, I found MT tires and wheels for almost the same money as buying tires alone. My tire wheel combo is good for 6005 pounds each. I have had this setup going on 4 years on my very heavy 40' fifth wheel, they have been flawless.

    Yes LT tires are an option. There are also better ST tire options available, than the ones from earlier years. There are many tire threads on this forum, lots of opinions/experiences. It would help to know what tire size, and exact FW size/weight that you are wanting tires for.
