In reading the previous posts, concensus is the Michelin LTX M/S is the way to go. Went to several tire joints (dealer included), and was told that the LTX M/S was discontinued, replaced with LTX M/S2. Same places said this tire was not available in 18's. Just went to Michelin site and saw it was available in 18's, just not my exact size (P235/65R 18).
I'm no size expert, so my question is: while keeping my current rims, can the following be put on them without rubbing?
(1) P265/65R18
(2) LT275/70R18
(3) P265/60R18
(4) P265/70R18
(5) P275/65R18
Please educate me on what the P's, LT's, and the R's mean. If I remember right, basically means tire height and width. The lower the R #, the wider? The Michelin fact sheet on this is in my library.
Also options include:
(A) Goodyear Fortera Tripletred (I think everyone here hates Goodyear).
(B) Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza (had good luck with Bridgestones, but in cars).
(C) Firestone UNI-T Destination LE (??)
Thoughts/opinions? Thanks in advance.
