    Doesn't show what load range they were rated? They should have ran 2 exact same tires except with one being C and one being E, rather than one heavy duty off road tire versus OEM tires. Obviously the heavy duty tire is going fair better than an OEM tire. Doesn't prove anything about load range itself being more puncture resistant.

    Procomp sport a/t.

    My point is suggesting everyone run out and get e rated tires is a little misleading. You can get the same ply on a less rated tire and maybe even get a better ride.

    Skinny tires, less flotation, more PSI, more flats. Better get some 15.50's :benchpress:

    Seems like those st maxx ones are pretty good. Nice choice for OP. I almost got those but I'm old and was coming off some loud mud terrains. :)

    A lot of people are against Super Swamper Thornbirds, but once you groove them, they get really quite and are virtually unstoppable off road, and give like 4mpg better mileage.

    Also plys don't exist anymore. It's only listed for old guys. Radials only have like 2 or maybe 3 plys at most.

    I doubt too many old dudes are riding around in a LT glassed tacoma on 37s :D My guess is under 40.

    Big respect for that. Yeah, I learned about 10ply tires myself. They suck on the gas milage but they sure don't get flats like lesser tires. Cheers.

    I went to my duratracks load c and haven't had any punctures or flats or blown sidewall after 30k miles so far? Maybe you're airing down too much?
