We just bought a new 2018 f150 cc eco. it came with goodyear wrangler tires, p rated .

My current 2013 f150 has Michelin defender e rated tires that I had installed. They have 25300 miles on them. They have been great tires for towing and show very little wear. Been rotated properly and wearing even.

I am thinking about having my tire shop switch the tires, putting the new tires on the f150 I am selling and e rated tires on the new truck.

Question is does this make sense? Does to me.

We got excellent service out of the General Grabbers that came on our truck. We replaced them with Michelin Defenders when the time came, though.

Makes perfect sense. I had an older F150 that came with p-rated tires; got rid of them quickly.

Can't figure why they even put "P" tires on new full sized pick-ups.
Full sized trucks should have truck tires (LT's) from the get go.

I have had great service from Michelin Defenders. Check Costco.
