I currently have BFG 35x12.50x17 KM2's that are wore out. I am looking to replace them with another mud tire. The BFG's only are rated for 3000lbs a tire. So my question is, are the BFG's enough capacity for my truck/camper setup (93 Lance 10'9') or should i be looking for something more? Like the Toyo MT's that are E rated and 3640 a tire? I believe the camper is around 3500 lbs but haven't weighed it yet. Thanks.

Load the camper, go to the nearest CAT scale, pay the $10, weigh it, and THEN you will know what size tire you need to buy.  -------------------- Bob Hicks, from Utah
