XL is a P tire with more pressure and weight rating. Not an LT.
That could be part of his squishy handling problem. LT's have stiffer side walls than P's.
OD not quote me, but a P=xL seems to be a cross between a LR C and a P metric tire. But with LR C ability. Much like P metrics with speed ratings. I have yet to see if they need to be de-rated like a true P-metric used in a truck/trailer setting my 9% or not.....
I would still prefer an LR C in the OP's situation.
I've also run different sized tires front and rear on a 4wd, BUT, I had 245-75-16s on the front of my old 05 dually, and the standard 215-85-16's on the rear. Both had the same diam, revs per mile etc. One could do this with 235-85-16 and 265-75-16 tires too.
