20" wheels...reducing tow capacity?
Hey, all! New here, still looking at what we want out of a TT (I have another thread running asking about possibilities there). But another question dawned on me today as I was reading some other post...
Forum Discussion
Ok, just checked my tires on the Toyo website. The new Open Country tires i have, despite being A/T are "P" rared, not LT. It would figure that all the Tundras now have "P" class tires except the 17" Rock Warrior version (which I traded in 2011 for my current Platinum). Max load on them is 2403 (I assume that's each?). The LT version in a smaller wheel size is MUCH higher.
So it really sounds like Toyota spec'd this version of the Tundra to do very light pulling and mostly be a large people-mover. They don't really expect you to do much pulling with the Platinum trimline.
I just don't relish the idea of dropping another couple thousand dollars on new tires and wheels before I can really consider the trailer... Or am I overreacting, and freaking out for no reason?
I appreciate all the help!
