hi Guys, this is my first post on a
forum. I have a 80 series and an off road caravan. i have LT7.50r16 on the van and LT265/75r16 on the truck. Have to replace the truck tyres soon and want to have them all the same. My current thoughts are to change the truck tyres to LT7.50R16. My reasons are that they are a heavier duty tyre, cheaper (not a big factor) slightly higher for more clearance. We don't do any heavy off road just dirt and corrugation's. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Harry

I would go for All Terrain tyres as you don't need full off road ones like Mud Terrain.
If you went to a good quality All Terrain radial you will find the vehicle handles better, is more comfortable and is more economical.
When choosing All Terrain tyres make sure they are Light Truck construction and they meet you weight requirements, most 4x4 tyres can come in passenger or light truck version and the price is minimal.
Are you running split rims or tubeless rims.
