Hi guys,

I haven't posted in forever, but I just sold my 295/70-17 (D) Cooper STT's and I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of 275/70-17 AT3s. They're available in C or E load ratings and I'm having a hard time choosing.

I don't go off-road, tow or load the bed often, so I'm leaning toward C. If anyone has any thoughts, I'm all ears.

Thanks

 

Even if you towed went offroad etc, the LR C would be more than adequate. Only if you have the 8200lb GVWR would I say stay away from the LR C. Just make sure to run the LR C between 40 and 45. I would start at 40. The LR E would also be fine, just a little more harsh on the ride, but that would not be a great difference. Those would have to be run at around 50.

 

C it is. Thanks.

 

A LR C in that size is what came OE on my truck, and on many F150s over the years, Now they have mostly P series (LR B) tires. I am not fond of those at all.
While a LR D or E is overkill (but fine nontheless), the P series tires are just adequate. I much prefer LT series.

 

Pulled the trigger on LT275/70-17C. Should have them on in a couple of days.

Thanks for the help.

 

Let us know how they handle ,especially in wet. They are one of my choices for my next set of tires.

 

Will do. It should be raining here soon.

 

Looking for tires soon, could you post some pics once you get them on the struck? Thanks
