Question: P tires vs LT tires. Will the weight of a KJ (with all the front end weight - winch, steel bumper, etc) make P tires feel more unstable compared to LT tires? As in hitting recessed manhole covers and higher speed cornering/curves in roads? |

P's will flex more than LT's noticeable but probably not a big deal unless you're running Autocross. - big issue is sidewall strength when offroad and the tire's air'ed down, P's cut easier than LT's |

I'm a P guy, and so far, I haven't had a flat tire with the P's.  If I were doing some serious wheeling, then I would want some sidewall protection. With that being said, I've heard a lot of people getting sidewall punctures even with the Goodyear Duratracs. So who knows, P's do ride so much better. I wish there were more aggressive tires that are P rated.

I'd go with LT tires. Better off road and better suited to vehicles equipped with bumpers/winch We're running load range E and our rig handles like a dream. |
