Yikes, just looked them up and $175 EACH?!?! I paid $500 out the door for the whole set of my current LT's.
Michelin Rib LT's run around $225 each. I put them on my 5er 2 years ago including spare. So $175 each for Endurance is not so bad.
I paid $480 for a set of 4 endurance 225/75-15 LRE including the america's tire replacement program last July. The maxxis were noticeably more expensive.
yes, LT's would be nice but I can't get 15" LT's with a high enough load rating.
The TT I first put LTs on started it's life with 205/14 LRC ST tires. After several tire size LRE increases, and rim sizes, I finally got to the solution. Michelin 16" LT XPS RIBs.
If you really want to go to LTs, it is likely possible to put 16"
LTs on your TT. If I could do it on that old TT of mine, you probably can too.
It isn't cheap. But my TT tires are now every bit as reliable as my TV tires. No need to baby them, checking on them constantly for signs of trouble.
