Once again I repeat: To those of you who believe that LT tires are fundamentally or intrinsically better than comparable ST Tires...Where are your sources? So far No One has posted a single article, Rule, Law or testing data that supports that argument. Meanwhile I have posted many with easily googled references.

Nice try but what you posted is just your opinion and shows no facts about testing prodedures.
You must be a new person to the website as the answer to your opinions/questions of the ST vs LT debate has already been brought to the forum attention and put to rest several years ago by SeniorGNC very articulate summations that shows the overall test for the LT is more rigorous than the ST test per 49CFR 571.109/119/139 tire requirements.

The ST vs LT debate isn't about LT tires used in a tow vehicle position but rather when used in a trailer position.
We don't need a individual or a tire company or a tire chain store telling us which tire is best.
The simple way is do a google which leads us to many different trailering websites. Then pay attention to which tire type has the least problems in the trailering on all those different forums at that site.
In the mean time the ST vs LT debate rages on ......for some folks.
