There are may times when the P rated tire actually has a higher load rating than the LT tire in the same size.

ST do have a softer ride as per their narrow tread design. This however leaves the ST with a basket ball shaped sidewall which creates more sidewall flex and leaves it more suspect to sidewall cuts. Sidewall flex = heat. Much the same as using a wrong wheel width on a P or LT tire. Carlisle old websites advertising mentions the soft ride from the ST as a plus.
