Interesting article on tire rack about tire applications

This is the paragraph that caught my attention Also consider that Special Trailer (ST), as well as Light Truck (LT) tires are fully rated for trailer applications. This means ST- and LT-sized tires...

It will be interesting to see the back tracking that will take place when the LTs in trailer service start failing.

The number of TT tire failures is relatively small and virtual all TTs come with STs. If the percentage of LTs grows to any significant amount, I suspect the results will be the same.

Time will tell.


Don't hold your breath.

Quite few here have made the switch. Many of them like myself because of repeated ST tire failures... Yet these problems go away when using LT tires.
