Rough riding tires

Prev owner of my truck just put a brand new set of 265 Goodyear silent armor tires on. The only problem is he put 10plys on it and they ride very rough, at 20mph and 40mph they have an up and down shake that will rattle the glass. 70mph they are smooth as long as the road is. Just curious if anyone has 10plys on a 1/2 ton and what you did to smooth out the ride.


I'm guessing nothing will help but thought I'd ask, thought about running the air pressure down but wasn't sure if that would cause the tire to heat up. May just have to deal with it or replace them with a P metric or 6ply.

I always ran 10ply's on my F150's. Try running them at 40-50 psi.

I'll try 50 in the front and 40 in the back and see how they do, thanks.
