    So I just got 12 ply Hercules for the RV. Any suggestions on what to get for my truck? We will be doing a lot of traveling.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Anything factory size with a not aggressive/off-road tread.

    My 2017 trd off road came with 275/65/18's michelines, when they were shot i went with 275/70/18 toyo mt's (big meaty bastards). Holy hell, towing our 6500lb trailer the larger heavier tires killed the power. I couldn't stay in S5 unless it was downhill so going 60mph i had to stay in 4th at like 3krpm.
    i ended up finding a great deal on some extra wheels/tires that are factory size (goodyears i think), so i just swap them when towing. A bit of a pain, but i love the toyo's so i'll deal.

    What to get for the truck? Copious amounts of gasoline.
