Before the B/D..We towed the 3 car hauler to G'Ville with the 255/30/22 on semis with no problem..However I would prefer 35 or 40 series on 22s and 35 series on 24s and in 19s 235/35/19s work good

I'm not trying to be a stick in the mud, but don't you get worried about having a blowout because your tires are not rated for the weight? Or maybe I'm ignorant and Lock needs to take me to school.

I've always kinda wondered about that, myself.

A Yoko advan sport sized 265/30/22 is rated at 1600 pounds. You have 4 of them in back, 6400 pounds. Estimate half of the truck weight at 3500 pounds(on thye tires), and you have 2900 pounds of load carrying capacity left over.

A Yoko Parada Spec X 265/40/22 is rated at 2000 pounds a tire...

I don't think thats the same as a "D" rated tire though. I could be wrong. I probably am.

Some people still run a stock wheel with a load rated tire on the inside.
