The truck and SUV have never been more prolific than they are today. These vehicles need remarkably different tires depending on a few different factors. Be honest: are you selective about what tire you offer your customers who qualify as “fringe cases?”
P-series tires (passenger) originally went on cars, and LT-series (light truck) went on… well, you guessed it, I’m sure. But the lines are blurred. A Chevy Suburban is sure built to haul people, but it may well be built on a 2500-series truck chassis.
