Why do I keep blowing out tires on my truck?
The last three sets of tires on my 2007 Ram 2500 have had one tire blow out. Always the same, passenger side rear. Have not weighed my trailer but specs are 7,000 dry, GVWR 10,500, pin weight 1,500....

From what I can find online, the standard tire size for your truck is 265/75R16. The standard Defender weight rating is is 2756 lbs/tire. There is an LT265R16 (load range E - 10 ply rating) version that is 3415 lbs/tire.
They also make a LT285/75R16 version that is 3750 lbs/tire. After multiple blowouts I would want these !
Inflate to the pressure recommended by the TIRE MANUFACTURER !
Well the LT265/75-16E should be the tire called out on the vehicle payload sticker. That should be the MINIMUM sized tire you install on your truck,
