LT Load Range 'E' Tires
Hello all,
My daily driver Jeep pickup is in need of a replacement set of summer tires; presently I am running oversized P245/70/16 Toyo Open Country with a max pressure of 35. I am considering moving to a LT Load Range 'E' tire as they can be aired up to about 90 psi in an attempt to reduce rolling resistance, increase fuel economy, etc.
I realize that tires aired that high will be super stiff and affect driveabilty and handling, but my truck is rarely driven over 55 as a commuter a few days a week... maybe once or twice a summer it will actually haul heavy or large items [winter has a fiberglass topper +3 60# sandbags].
Any thoughts on the E tires? I am still a little new at the entire fuel economy game but am eager to learn.
Thanks!
