Here is Michelin LTX M/52
Size: P235/75R15
Sidewall Style: Outlined White Letters
Serv. Desc: 108T (2200 lbs per tire) T - 118 MPH uhhhh, no)
Load Range: XL (42 psi??)
Does this sound like a decent LT? The 2,200 per tire, would be at my axle limit of 4,400 lbs. Is that ok?
Also, would this be firm enough to help reduce any sway?
Heads up sgrizzle,
You miss read the tire type. You selected size P235/75R15. The P is the tire type aka Passenger type tire. They will not work well in a trailer situation and sway will very likley be an issue with the softer P tire side wall. You also picked the 235 width which is wider the the more standard 225 tire width on campers. You rims may be too narrow and you may not have wheel well clearance left to right
You are looking for a LT aka Light Truck, in that location tire sizing number. I do not believe Michelin makes a LT225/75R15 in either a load range D or E
The Michelin LTX label is a tire brand so to speak. Not the tire type.
I had to jump to 16" tires (LT225/75R16) to replace my ST225/75R15's. New rims and had to deal with the increased tire OD and wheel well clearance. See may reply on this thread a page back. There is a link there with all I needed to do to convert.
Good luck and hope this helps
