Correct tire size for driving truck camper on the beach
Looking to purchase a Dodge Ram 2500 truck. The size of these tires that are on the truck are 245/70SR17.0E Will that be sufficient for hauling a truck camper on the beach? Thanks

We have traveled a good deal over the very soft sand on Assateague Island, Maryland. There are literally hundreds of TC's operating here.
We have been using 16" Nitto Dune Grapplers on our very heavy rig with excellent results. We air down to 20 psi rear and 30 front and should we encounter an extra soft spot we have room to air down a bit more.
We have the benefit of a bank of hi pressure compressors at the entrance to the beach, and a large group of experienced sons of the beach always willing to help if someone is stuck.
