This year I had to buy a TV to replace a totaled truck. The totaled truck was a 2002 F-250 that had Les Schwab Wild Country tires on it.. The truck rode smooth and road noise was minimal.. the replacement truck is a 2006 F-250 that came with relatively new "Mastercraft Courser" tires on it. The truck rides very rough compared to my last one. Every bump in the road is felt and road noise is more than I would expect. I have replaced all the shocks and still not any better.. Has anyone had experience with Mastercraft LT tires... Am exhausting all avenues before I change tires...

Are you running them at the recommended PSI, or the max psi printed on the tire wall? 80 PSI will ride rough.

Tire balancing? Or maybe they're crummy tires/.

You sure the Wild County tires were not LRD vs LRE? Chris

Sounds like crappy tires to me. May be shocks too.

I've had P, P-XL's LRD KO2's and now LRE Defenders on our SUV and I've been happy with the ride of every single one of them, provided the LT's were not over 50psi not towing.

Same question, were the old tires LRD and new ones LRE. I had Les Schwab snow tires for my earlier RAM that were LRD and they had a noticeable better ride than the LRE's. Have you checked inflation? An empty truck does not need 80 PSI in the rear tires. Try 44 lbs. Chris
