Curious whether anyone is running P-rated tires, and if so, what model and size?
When I bought my 18" OEM Tundra wheels, they came with Michelin LTX A/T2 tires in 275/65R18 with load range P. These are All Terrain tires that weigh only 40lbs per corner vs. anywhere from 52-60lbs for common LT load range E tires that many folks run. That's a very big difference in unsprung weight.
On paper, these tires are supposed to be 32". In reality, I just measured a hair over 30" of height (cold tire pressure, on the vehicle).
Are there any other P-rated A/T tires of ~largish sizes for an 18" wheel? There is no benefit (for my uses) in getting C/D/E rated tires - I want to keep weight relatively low while increasing tire height if at all possible.
I do see lots of options in 285/60/18 P, but am hoping to find something larger.
