Load range C

It's getting time for new tires, I have stock Load Range C tires LT275 65 18 Wranglers ATS on the truck right now. I am not known for pulling much, a boat, a horse trailer with furniture and a trailer with either a snowmobile or quad on it. Should I stay with the Load Range C or should I move down to a four ply tire. The truck rides well with the Load Range C tires. I have the factory trailer towing package and the 7200 GVWR package. 2004 F150 FX4 with 373's and the 5.4

If you go to a p series, yes it will have a bit of a softer ride, but it will lean more in turns. The sidewalls of a p series have more of a tendency to roll under than they do with an LT tire. My opinion, stay with the LR C.

Do not go down, if anything go up in load range. I hate soft looking sidewalls and even more so, soft feeling sidewalls. When a sidewall starts to roll over and you are turning like you mean it, it sure is nice to get that tire going where you are pointing it instead of squealing and slipping.
