What type of tire do light trucks use?
Passenger (P) tires can be ideal light-duty trucks not used for off-roading, while heavy-duty trucks that carry heavy loads may be better suited with light truck (LT) tires. P-metric might be ideal if you prioritize a smoother ride, don’t frequently haul or tow heavy loads, and drive mainly on highways or urban roads. LT tires would be more appropriate if you often carry heavy loads, tow trailers, or go on rough terrains.Although LT-metric tires perform admirably off-road, they are not appropriate for everyday driving situations. The cost of fuel can be greatly increased by their hefty construction and rolling resistance.
Which tire is taller, 285 or 275?
A 275/70r18 is aller than a 285/65r18. Both are 33s, but the 275/70r18 is usually 33. Id prefer slightly taller than slightly wider personally. Two different things. That’s 11.
