F 250 Tire load rating.
I am looking for numbers on load rating of 17 vs 18 LR E tires on the F 250. What would i grain, if any, by going from 17" to 18" tires?
Forum Discussion
A few years ago on the tow or 5er forum here, a guy changed his tires to taller ones because he thought the smaller OEM tires looked silly. Then he could hardly pull his trailer anymore :)
It all came out that the 16" tires and 4.10 gave him the combined weight pulling he needed, but the taller tires lost him 2000 lbs of pulling same as if he had 3.6 instead of 4.10.
So much for looking "kewl" :)
