The ST vs. LT is not a resolvable issue.
The tire manufacturers developed ST tires for the rigors of TT towing. They have a stiff sidewall to resist the torque applied while turning and a tread pattern designed for running. They are available in a limited number of sizes and weight ratings.
LT tire were developed for light trucks. They are designed for traction and stearing applications. They are available in many sizes, tread patterns and load ratings. Many RV owners believe the larger selection of LT tires allow them to better match the needs of their RV then the use of ST tires.
At this point I cannot say with any degree of certainty which opinion is correct.
Yep, pretty much have to agree. As of right now, I'll stick with my Maxxis tires and keep on glampin'.
