Funny, I've seen a Sierra 3500HD pop two non E rated tire when loaded and going through some lose travel. He was running a 305/55/20 standard rating and was loaded down with a fifth wheel. Both popped almost simultaneously.
Yeah I would definitely run E rated tires on a 3500 with a 5th wheel - a lot more weight there than my 1500 with max of 800lb hitch weight!Funny, I've seen a Sierra 3500HD pop two non E rated tire when loaded and going through some lose travel.

They look like the OEM Laramie 20" wheels.That looks amazing! May I ask what specific wheels are those? For the life of me, I can't distinguish what it is (poor eyesight). It'll help me match up my choices when I'm finally buying one of those tire and wheel packages online.
Correct they are the OEM wheels! Not uncommon to see folks selling them on the forum or locally on CL or FB if you like the look.They look like the OEM Laramie 20" wheels.
Good choice, these tires have been good to me. I'm looking forward to getting another set but hopefully no time soon.Got the tires on today, they definitely meet my eclectic for look and first impression on ride and noise levels are good. View attachment 96247View attachment 96248
Thanks for that info - do you have the XL rated version? Any experience toeing with them?Good choice, these tires have been good to me. I'm looking forward to getting another set but hopefully no time soon.
Ha - meant to write towing!Thanks for that info - do you have the XL rated version? Any experience toeing with them?
Good looking setup. What size tires are you running and what is the offset of your rims? Thanks in advance.Put the new Mickey Thompson Baja Boss ATs on last week. Certainly look great and aggressive. Road noise is minimal and ride is great. 50k mile warranty, but obviously longevity is TBD.
I've had 3 sets of **** Cepeck trail country exp in the past. Awesome tire. I got 75k miles on one set that were still in very good shape when I traded. The other sets were around 45k when traded and in excellent shape.
Did you keep stock size on the tires? 275/55/20?Got the tires on today, they definitely meet my eclectic for look and first impression on ride and noise levels are good. View attachment 96247View attachment 96248
Yep - 275/55R20Did you keep stock size on the tires? 275/55/20?
just got the Toyo AT3 in 285/60/20, just did a trip to tahoe in them and no complaints, nice and quiet.
295/60/20 (34x11.6) and wheels are 20x9, -19 offsetGood looking setup. What size tires are you running and what is the offset of your rims? Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure what the Nexen's weigh but the Nitto Ridge Grappler 285/50-20 XL tires are 45.26 lbs per tire and the 275/55-20 XL tires are 47.55 lbs per tire.I would like to go with 285/55/20, but they are all LT and weigh around 20lbs per tire more than the unlikable Nexen tires that came with my '21 big horn. I was hoping to get an XL at that size, but I need to keep to the original 275/55/20 for that at a 10lbs per tire increase in weight.
I'm not sure what you're asking with that.Is there a formula for calculating tow weight loss going with either and XL or LT?
Last time I looked, Toyo AT3 in a 275/60/20 which are pretty much 33's show a weight of 42lbs per tire. That's the tire size I'm planning on buying once I wear these out a bit more.I would like to go with 285/55/20, but they are all LT and weigh around 20lbs per tire more than the unlikable Nexen tires that came with my '21 big horn.
