Is a 10 ply or 12 ply tire better?
It simply depends on your needs. For hard-core towing and serious off-roading, 12-ply tires are better since they have the strength to carry the extra weight. When it comes to everyday use and lighter loads, a 10-ply tire will give a much smoother ride. If you drive a ¾ ton, one ton or even larger pickup or SUV (or haul a trailer) then you require 10-ply tires.
