Thanks.
Looking at the RSI and their truck tires (due to size), I come up with
the
WR or LT at 1/2" too high diameter, or the RSI at 2" too small diameter.
(225/75 is the stock diameter I'm looking for.)
How would the RSI (or LT) wear on dry/wet roads in the cold?
In the winter, I drive mostly on wet NE interstate highways, but it's
the occasional heavy snow (and anytime surprise black ice) on the
interstate, as well as the commonly unplowed town roads, that make me
hesitant about the WR given your description above.
