LT Tire vs ST Tire
I assumed I wanted ST Tires for my camper and some people are telling me to go with LT Tires. Now I'm confused, and guess I shouldn't assume.
Forum Discussion
All kinds of opinions and user experiences with ST and LT tires. Some good, some bad.
All I can say is that between my neighbor and I we have logged around 250K (yes 1/4 million) miles towing trailers with ST tires. Between the two of us we have had two nail flats that we caught before the tire went flat and caused any tire damage. And we each get about 30K miles/set of tires. I run Maxxis, neighbor runs whatever Les Schwab has.
We each put enough miles/year on tires that the wear out rather than "age out".
Neither of us has switched to LT since we couldn't find a 15" 225/75 LRE LT tire. And we both need the carrying capacity of a LRE with 15" rims.
