Hey rgv, on the topic of tires what are your thoughts on class c, d,or even e tires for my application in relation to hiway rideFor stability and ride comfort with a 1300-1400 lb load, you won’t get much more stability and ride comfort from a 172” wheelbase truck than how it comes off the lot. Maybe change the tires to suit your intended use and terrain.
With the payload capacity you’re talking I think you have no choice but to stay with E rated. I’ve settled on Toyo C/T most of the year and Nokian LT3 in the winter.
That said, I have Michelin AT2 E rated on my work F150 and have been very impressed with the highway ride and durability on blast rock and pipeline right-of-ways.
