I have been looking for E rated 35's and cant seem to find any. Is anyone running them or do they not make them fo a 17" wheel? I tow my fifth wheel about three times a year and fully loaded it is about 8500lbs, have any of you guys switched from e's to d's that tow? If so did you notice a change with two less sidewall plys? I would love to e's but I just cant find them. Thanks Guys
Frank

Add fuel to that it jumps to 14.8 cents per mile over the life of the truck.
i've towed plenty with 285/75R16 D rated tires up to 10,000 lb trailer weight and never had a problem. I think they handled the load just as well as when I had E rated tires.
