ST vs LT tires.
What is it about this subject that causes threads to close sooooo quickly? The last lasted 8 hours!!! before it was closed. So let's try this again, but folks - let's keep it civil. No name ...

Well lets see ST tires seem to cost less than LT tires, and are designed to run only on trailers. They are designed to roll along in a straight line 99.999% of the time, only take the high side loads when doing a sharp turn into or out a camping pad.
Big rigs use the same tires in all positions, steer, drivers and trailer. Most will take a set of steer tire casings (different tread pattern) and have them recapped then use those on either a trailer or as a set of drivers. Think of the forces on a set of tandem drivers! I have LTs because I believe they are a better stronger tire.
