Expedition EL - LT tires
I have a Expedition EL that I am using to pull my travel trailer. While I know that the trailer is maxing out the Expedition, it is what I have and it isn't going anywhere for a few years. Nevertheles...

So my question is, would LT tires help with this problem? I have the factory P tires on there aired up to max pressure (50 lbs).

Basically, is there a drastic difference between a P and LT.
Yes ! Stiffer sidewalls and heavier load rating. I would look for tires with >116T load rating (Michelin LTX). This is what is on my daughter's 2012 Expedition.
Higher profile (65-75 series) tires will also have stiffer sidewalls.
Do you have the factory HD trailer tow option ? You can always add the HD radiator and extra transmission cooler. Good piece of mind.
