XL series split the difference. Any one using these?

Yeah. Have some on the wife's SRT Charger. Great car tires!
$ for $ you'll get more life and better performance out of a heavier load rated tire in of course capacity if you need that, performance as they'll be stiffer or can be made stiffer (more air) and treadwear as greater cap tires are designed to hold greater loads and as such sometimes have greater tread depth then their light duty twins and harder rubber compound both contributing to longer tire life.
