Trying to get some feedback on this tire size. Any advice or comments will be greatly appreciated. My main concern is heavy hauling. I'm a little Leary about 8 plys.

 

As well you should be. If you're planning on heavy hauling, get a 10 ply.

One of the many things I'v learned over the years, don't mess around with tires and batteries. Go big or stay home.

 

its a big brother to 235/85r16, 31 vs 33. skinny tire only comes in d/standard plys (6?) in canada. also only found with an aggressive mud pattern. though there maybe some milspec tires with more plys i dont think there is a more hiway friendly tread. ive seen some threads on them by the expedition guys and they are kinda popular with the toyota guys looking for a cheap lift.
any towing should be done with a minimum of an LT tire. dodge lists an e rated tire for the trucks (8 ply). which means any lower rated tire will legally invalidate the axle.
how heavy are we talking about?

 

I have had as much as 4000 pounds in the back. I don't haul much but I want to stay equipt because you never know when your gonna have to haul heavy. The D's are a 8 ply and E's are a 10 ply. The 255's in a 8 ply are only rated 42 pounds less then a 235 in a 10 ply. But I don't know if there's a difference in performance. Almost a grand is a big investment for a set so I want to make sure I get good tires. I have seen one 255 in a 10 ply Thank you guys for the feedback!
