Need advice from the members. I have over 200K on my silverado 1500 ext cab 4x4. Ya all know I pull my tractor but very very rarely. Now and then I pull a car trailer but very very rarely. In my case, are a LT tire the best bet or can I go with a P
I an looking at P245/75R16 109 S owl. Sams has em for 120 bucks. I have always bought the best I could afford in the past but my ambition level has dropped and my mileage is gettin to the point where I dont want to spend another c note.
Saftey is top though so what do you all think?

P245/75's Thanks K!!! I think that makes up my mind. I know it will be tough to "get over" that manly thing of having LT tires but I would like to save a few bucks. I had a trail game camera stolen last month and want to replace it (200) so if I save bucks on the tires it will lessen the pain (and maybe save the life of the B-sturd) if I ever find out who dunn it!
So "P" it is!!!!
Any one else like to add ideas? EW?? I am sure you have "EXTRA XL " LT tires on yers?

I see Sams club has a decent price on their road hazard plan. My buddy has used it a few time. Have you seen where they will fix flats for free for as long as the tires have 2/32 of tread or more?
I decided on
P245/75R16 109 S OWL Bridgestone DUELER H/T 684. Consumer report has a decent view on these (not great but decent for the money though it is the best review dollar for dollar.
Anyone have an opinion about these?

I went with H/T istead of A/T because recently I travel almost entirely on hyway. In the old days I never knew what I would drive thru. You think H/T is ok considering I pull that trailer but only occasionaly? Thank
