    Does it make a difference if you have P rated or LT rated tires when towing ie. Travel Trailer?

    I see some of the LT tires have a Maximum Load Rating

    I think for towing as long as you have tires that are capable of the load that you are carrying and you air them up so that the sidewalls don't sag, you are fine. Obviously, don't air them past the max. But if you have the money, I personally, and it is totally my preference, I would get E rated tires.
