XL vs LT tires?
So thinking about getting some new tires this spring and moving up to either XL or LT tires. Not sure which is the better option for me? I have a 2018 F150 with OEM P tires now. Towing 6500lb (dry)...

I would do an XL or LR C. No reason to spend extra on a 10ply LR E tire. I found no handling difference between a LR D and E tire other than an extra $10-20 per tire out of my pocket when both are run in the 50-60 psi range, and appropriate weights per axel.
I also had not heard of the derate the XL by 9%, I have heard that with P metric.

Told my Boss' son to throw on a set of Michelin "E" on his 99 1/2 ton Chevy years ago. He ran those tires at what was recommended and went 150k.
